Last Night :: Every Night :: Tomorrow Night
king of the horses
2002-08-25
I knew I was in danger. I had reached a place where my enemy, a man who would shoot me, would kill me. I perched on a crossbeam, a rough hewn log. I was a hawk. Just below me I saw two ponies. They were both short and fat and shaggy, one larger than the other. The bigger one bowed, and then the other followed suit. I knew I was sacred to them. The larger pony came and told me to climb on his back. "I am the King of the Horses," he said. I climbed onto him, a human, lay on my stomach and held on to various straps going across his back. He leapt away, and just in time to save me from getting shot. He took giant leaps and flew, and we covered far distance, and entered another reality. He set me down in the halls of a college, and left, telling me that I would be safe and protected by the people there. I looked into one of the rooms, and saw a girl sitting on the bed.
