Horse Race

 Horse Race




Underperforming at the derby this evening … The race track, coiled to strike. Dust a furious furious beating ‒ against a hollow chest. / The stallions, overdressed and underperforming / braided to high hell / candy cane striped and a bloated winner / gets the blue ribbon / The jockeys amped up on steroid pipe dream / scarred red from whiskey back rooms / colts perched, up in the saddle / The feed is poisoned, bets are fucked / ‘Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth’ / the teeth are rotting / pruned for high water / chomp clomp clap / at the failure / chomp clomp clap / at the indolent lethargic foot dragging creature / BAM / shoots the lame horse / BAM / kills the broken footed / slack jawed ‒ the capable beast / BAM / screeching / down the stretch they come / foals / dogs / iron maidens.
