....to reminisce with my old friends...
horse:"Hey! What R U lookin at?"
Me: Well I wanna know what you all think you are doing? We have rules around here and you're breakin em Lady!
Horse: Um, well let me swallow this squash and start from the beginning...
first, it was that young guy you humans call Stetson that came up with the idea...
"He saw a break in the fence and said 'Hey y'all! Over here!' and we went to take a look..."
"We all thought it looked like a real "break" in our otherwise boring lives....
so the best among us crossed over into freedom! Your dogs aided and abetted by the way..."
"for the indigenous among us this was a moment that hearkened back to the wild plains of their ancestors"...
a real chance to "buck" the system...
"I on the other hand am a real "Lady" as you have named me and I paused for the sake of decorum before I gleefully lept over that silly fence to freedom!"
"Then you humans all came running and looking angry..."
"...we were just trying to enjoy these delicious tomatoes that were just sitting right there, ripe for the picking...
and well, now you know all that I know about this whole sordid mess."
"You exercised your authority (that you think you have)and now we are back on the wrong side of the tracks...I mean fence....
"Its just like the song says...."
lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah.....
"But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself.
And humans?
Trust me....
I and my fellow equines will be pleasing ourselves with a taste of freedom again soon....
As soon as you are not watching that is....
They are beautiful
