PONY
WILD PONY RACE
up on a horse at 4 long before a bike
no saddle father’s cowboy boots gleaming
annie oakley-girl screaming her chuckwagon
heart out
fearless up there horses like mountains make
sure your hand is FLAT for sugar cube after
Big Yellow Teeth graze her fingers August sixteen
approaching day they took Elvis +cowboy father
girl left to wander at the pony races her phone #
fades drops things on the floor forgets to lock the
door but she will tell you with certainty: NEVER
WALK BEHIND YOUR HORSE!
And please: DO NOT RESUSCITATE
