Horse of a Different Color
The prophetic pale grey horse is now unleashed
and released from his stall, like a young eagle
hatching, leaving his nesting place.
His freedom dawns a season of famine,
disease, destruction. Sons rob their fathers
of lifetime savings for a momentary
mountaintop. Meth replaces myrrh,
hoping to just stop the pain. Listen!
You can hear hoofbeats in the distance.
