Desolation


When I lost My Friend, Flicka,

The Black Stallion of the night

raised me up and ordered me

to be valiant, to Inherit the Wind.

I was The Horse Master’s Girl

but I could not mount flying currents

Or harness the wind-chaffed seas.

Thus, I wept in the lonesome valley,

Displaying my Black Beauty as a deficit.

With the eyes of morning, I sank.
