Yes child, maybe one day,
in another world, the horse arrives,
its rider gallant and able. But now
is not that world
and this is not that time. Now he
spins, having lost both horse and will
to ride–– and besides, has never learned.
You are alone–– yet, look around.
Find the company of everyone before
you who has ever learned the same.
There is no more now
to do than there was before, only
less illusion. Carry on. Chin up.
Giddy-up. You are the horse
and the rider. Go on.
