There Were Horses Comments

Hi Bri I'm at my computer, replying to and sending Christmas greetings, your comment gives me a welcome break. Thanks for bringing the comma to my attention, you're right, it's superfluous and I'll get rid of it. Thanks also for analysing the poem. I don't think I had something specific in mind, as a natural or man-made disaster, though that in itself is an interesting idea. I see it more as an existential poem. Man is circumscribed by society; some remain trapped in it, some will free themselves, the horses, in this context become a symbol of freedom. That, roughly speaking, is what I wanted to convey. Now to answer your other message. Cheers

some sort of natural or man-made disaster came? ? Not fear delay? i could use a bit of explanation, if you care to give some. your fingers might have gotten used to putting commas after lines in the last stanza; did you really want one after sweep? i enjoyed the continuing rhyme of -ay or -ay-sounding words. thanks for sharing. :)
