LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE HORSES
by Tricia Knoll |
| Horse Statue by jellobuster at DeviantArt |
One million dead in the Civil War,
if you count the mules.
Which I do.
I say, blowtorch the rebel statue
men off their mounts and keep
the horses striding on their pedestals.
They were not traitors
to their country, showed no sign
of caring who they carried,
black or white, male or
female. Their integrity
is without question.
They did the work
they were asked to do
without a nod at glory.
Tricia Knoll is an Oregon poet with a deep fondness for horses. I can see these statues with newly installed saddles replacing the old white men, perhaps ladders for children to climb up on.
