Horses Innocence, Experience
Somewhere in a half-life the horse in trust
you mount, wearily will as far as dark
water carry, and more still that you must
attend. All things you are that with time’s mark
appear to him only but vaguely known,
and there is naught to say as his path here
ends. Choice that needs no thought from you; come down
and wherefrom he drinks, Look; of the water
telling uncommon things; asking belief
of the mirror in revealing your strange
compare, stranger again in to concede
familiarity though you remain.
Go now, but leave the horse who cannot chase;
And where you will go, another horse waits.
