All Horses Run

Why not all the horses finish always first because who is first is nobody's sec... then there is the second who tries and not win then the third. the forth obviously the fifth then the one that fell and broke his leg and ended up with a hot bullet to remind the rest that who fail goes straight down with no name and prayers no tears funerals quiet in silence and in cold disgrace... There is still a race we the humans run try for years and years to be first or none to win everything or nothing at all. and when the last day comes and we fail and for us the same comes the very end ending in a grave tired, in regret just like this poor horse with a broken leg... When the race was over for ladies and gents some going to heaven some others to hell just a little boy went to horse's grave and wrote in a letter "You are my hero Sugar Pretty Boy" a single red rose and a tear across...
