Prancing Horse

Prancing Horse

Nobody who has ever

seen a horse PRANCE

and

has also

seen a horse

in

full out

s  t  r  e  t  c  h  i  n  g

      LEAP

would call this a “prance”

 

No, this horse,

missing a garnet eye –

let us not now

ask why this equus

is missing an eye –

this horse

is reaching for

the

finish

line

in the 2000th running of the Amenhotep III Derby!
