Horserunners

“Do you give the equine its strength?” Job 39:19

I noticed. I noticed.

Your legs churned, Your arms pumped.

And the breath. And the breath.

Sinew and muscle, And Bone and brain.

To the end of the world,

Through hell And happiness.

By the glory Of our lord.

I noticed. I noticed.

And me?

From the muck. Choking beneath

The burdens You were happy To let Me bear.

Yes, I noticed.
