I hate horse racing
if horses rode people
they wouldn’t need whips,
they’ve got hooves
they wouldn’t need whips,
they’ve got hooves

A One Eyed Horse
Over lanes I tread
Neath a black sky, a dead moon overhead
Aye, naught but the dead
Naught but rocks and runes instead
Out by yon farmer’s field
Walketh one apart from the rest
From it the others peeled
A horse, an unholy crest
On a rocky road by the wall
Where the cattle oft do graze
Cometh a horse black and tall
And meeteth my nervous gaze
Lo, struck am I with the smell of rot
And the visage of blighted skin
This thing from Hell begot
Decaying deep within
It whispereth through dread lips ...
Neath a black sky, a dead moon overhead
Aye, naught but the dead
Naught but rocks and runes instead
Out by yon farmer’s field
Walketh one apart from the rest
From it the others peeled
A horse, an unholy crest
On a rocky road by the wall
Where the cattle oft do graze
Cometh a horse black and tall
And meeteth my nervous gaze
Lo, struck am I with the smell of rot
And the visage of blighted skin
This thing from Hell begot
Decaying deep within
It whispereth through dread lips ...

Getting Late Now
It’s getting late now
I have a few more jobs to do
In the corner sweep up yesterday
As the clock runs down I grab my lunch pail
In the distance there’s a damage coming
We hear that there is a hurricane brewing
Boss says it isn’t so just keep working until
ya all go back to work it’s what you’re paid for
Clouds drop down heaven opens
The clouds dropped down hell opened
Boss says move your car out of the water
Flash flood warning upon us
Boss ignored the water...

Lucky Streak
If the champagne was being enjoyed
Meaning the best horse had undoubtedly
won
The track was being cleared
Or maybe another race had begun?
Pictures were being taken
Money was being handed out
For all the winning bets
To the people watching the race no doubt.
Let's stop to think for a second
How many races our horse had won before
Should we enter him in another race
Or possibly put him out to the pasture?
This horse may be on a lucky streak
Or we could lose if he fell and...

Before He Spotted Pamela
Ethan was taking a
walk on the beach
before he spotted
Pamela naked and
riding on a horse.
And when he saw
her like Lady Godiva,
he got turned on.

Not Ready for Horses
he enters the waiting room
calls my name
I look up
instant yes
green light from the universe
maybe the fifth time in my life
absolute knowing has come to me
faster than I can think
he asks what I want in a therapist
don't overdo the reflective listening
be blunt
call me out
don't be judgemental
if I'm trying to entertain you
steer me back to the hard work
I look him in the eye
a lot of it is just vibes
I already know you're going to work for me
we discuss his early morning...

STRIDOR
The sound
Muffled by smoke
Of a horse
Struggling desperately
To escape
A burning barn
Muffled by smoke
Of a horse
Struggling desperately
To escape
A burning barn

Mighty Star. Canter he hears
And away we go!

Berry Patch
We had a "secret" berry patch…
my sister and I...
would ride our horses down
to the edge of town...
...where…
under a mantle of leafy green...
shading them from
the hot Texas Sun
...lay hid...
a bazillion Boysenberries
as big as your thumb…
...with nary a thorn in sight…
There we both would eat
...our fill our …
coffee cans with berries…
snap on top the plastic lid
hook them carefully...
over our saddle horns
and take them home to Mum...

Unreal
Sometimes I feel like the
Velveteen Rabbit,
what the fuck is real
and does it hurt?
Not really connected.
Pixels paint my vision
this is a matrix,
the Oracle or Skin Horse
it's all the same
and the bunny always
gets burned.
Shapes.
Lines.
Space.
Solids.
