Quatrain of Dead Horse
Dead Horse - we all have beaten it
Ride dead horse dreams across the
blazing desert as your
tail bone gets
sore.
Beat to death the wisdom of your
trip; explain harbored
hostility you can't
ignore,
Place the blame for your failures,
on a steed killed by the
lies told in your
prime.
Become a slave to childish yearnings,
then beat that dead
horse one more
time.
