While the range of emotional landscapes explored in cowboy poetry are the traditional province of poetry, from joy to grief, from humor to spirituality, the particulars【B4】______the American West: horses, cattle, fire, storms, mythic figures of cowboys and ranchers, and the【B5】______wilderness. In their subject matter, cowboy poets tend to write in a traditional, rhyming(押韵的)style. They echo【B6】______songs more than modern poetry.

But the departure of the heroic cowboy has opened some room for gentler, more【B9】______voices. Although it is growing, their audience is【B10】______: unlike Western films, cowboy poetry is mostly produced by Westerners, for Westerners. [br] 【B2】
