It took me a few readings, but I think I get your game. It’s a good one.

Has anyone responded with words to this game? I am tempted to try, because my hand does not obey lines.

I demand your response. It would be the first of its kind.

A horse looks like freedom, to some, fear to others. A horse looks like chores -- stacking bales and scooping poop and grooming and leading -- to me, who has been a horse liker but not a horse lover.

A horse looks like trust on a good day, and a fool on a bad day. A horse looks like skittish energy personified, the largest animal of prey you've ever seen.

A horse looks like death to those under its hooves, on battlefields for centuries and on city streets from Selma to Chicago, a weapon in itself; but can the horse help that? If you love and obey abolitionists you can also love and obey oppressors; a horse looks like a tool we didn't gift with the freedom to know what is right and what is wrong.

What are you looking for? You choose what it is you see.
