horses resting from human hypocrisy

you tell me you want freedom

for everyone and

to freely be yourself

you say you don’t want to be controlled

and no one should control anyone – ever

what if i told you

when you hypocritically rode me to

“Get off my back”

Would you?

    Hello Dear Reader

    Exploring adventurously what horses are experiencing is a great way to expand our lives out empathetically

    Much love, Poet Deb

    Thank you for being Dear Reader

    There is much confusion over this poem online, and this a common reaction among us humans, who’ve been unaware of being taught to treat horses hypocritically.

    The following article has information, and the author explains what changed their mind about riding horses.
