Poem Artwork

 The creature 'horse' can be exchanged for the creature 'man'.

 

The Horse

 

In wild bolting lunges

The creature used for war

Breaks for escape

From man-made things, the spears 

The chains, the forceful

Violation of nature spirit.

 

All the contrived cruel 

Man- madeness mutated 

Into madness.

What else can a wild horse do but bolt in the face of such earthly
madness. Open the corals and let him run, as fast as He can,
thank you for sharing such creative force of nature, such as a Horse

As I read it seemed to be that the horse you have so beautifully illustrated could be a metaphor for nature chained and tamed by man only to be a mistake when nature strikes back.

The layers of subtext are arresting in this simple, yet complex summation of not only the horse but also so much of all Nature. As you proffer, man-madeness mutated into madness is a spreading virus infecting the very psyche of humankind's purpose. It's also interesting how your poem brings to mind how often we measure power in terms of horsepower. Beautiful and mesmerizing.

Simple and eloquent. And now we know why stud fees are so high...horse stud fees.

Your fine painting absolutely captures the essence of this
Evocative poem…and never more than now in
this chaotic time in our history…
