Poem of the Day

5 Comments

I need to walk each morning because there’s a horse that waits for me to rub its nose.

Though whether I stay five minutes or an hour,

I can never rub away its loneliness.

I need to walk so I can talk to a white dog that prowls in endless circles,

forever haunted by a chain, that cuts us both.
