She speaks of them
as if old friends
they are the uncomplicated
unquestioning equine
lovers
she can trust never to betray her
even when she lacks
The experience they might need from her
those who have been forced to surrender
to some ailment
caused by others
not all of them thoroughbreds
some nearly as flawed as she
wounded by life and
yet
she finding a way to carry on
magical in their
nature
if not quite the unicorn
she wanted to be
to recount each
recalls good times and bad
then physical
feelings
as well as her own
feeling their lack of judgment
in a world where no
human
or at best very few
could be nearly as so
generous
a Love affair of a different kind
