i saw a big horse today.
clop clop clop
a light brown and white spotted horse.
being walked...very slowly.
clop...clop...clop
by a man in black rain boots, a worn sagey green canvas jacket, and a matching knit hat. no stripes.
this farming archetype no younger than 60, with a weathered face. the horse i'm not sure.
funny thing is, i was driving. with coffee. on my way to work. did i just see that?
yes, yes i did. on Lawrence Avenue, just past Dufferin.
(a substantially busy area for those of you out of town)
trotting past a gas station, a busy intersection, an elementary school, and almost a walmart.
clop. stop... clop.

guys...
a horse. out for a walk. and not sauntering down the road majestically either like the police you see on horses in canada. this one was on the sidewalk. like a dusty kid riding a bike with training wheels. of course i saw our friend in a feather head dress instead of a helmet, and the man was painted clown. one of those old school sad faces...it was perfect.
brilliant if you ask me. and even if you don't, i tend to think out loud.
clop clop clop.
íts nice to be back.
