EMOTIONS, KNOWLEDGE, GENDERS
Four horses followed me;
Black, white, grey, red.
They reared high above me;
They grey leaped over my head.
They genuflected to me;
The red had trouble being led.
They raced themselves ahead of me;
Black and white together pounded,
And the four horses knew me.
Black and white were wed
But would not separate for me.
The grey reached and insisted,
Burrowing into me.
And the sunny, fiery red
Gloriously echoed from me.
Black and white thundered ahead,
Around the world from me.
The grey put its hooves on my head,
Sheltering and exposing me.
Drawing further, it circled me
With the books I had read.
The red stayed to the right of me,
Then, dancing, left trotted.
Spinning, it laughed at me,
Glanced at others, but me it taunted.
I saw black and white far from me,
And they still had the grey and red.
