Today I Want a Good Horse: Emi, Jackie

May 13, 2020 Kate Belew with Emi, Jackie (New York City)

Little girls with their horse fantasies

and who can blame them, wild ponies themselves

could drag a dream out from any rock

with gold twine and some pocket luck

when I was young I wanted 

glory. Today, I want a good horse 

fantasy to run away with.
