I'M Not a Horse

People think that I'm a horse because of my ugly horse face. When I go the track, everybody thinks that I'm there to race. I look so much like a horse that people put a feed bag on my head. When they watch reruns on television, they think that I was Mister Ed. When I got sick, somebody called a vet instead of a doctor. When she put her thermometer in my butt, I socked her. People think that I have the mange because I have no coat. When people buy me food, the idiots buy alfalfa and oats. When I try to play golf, they say that animals aren't allowed on the course. I'm getting sick and tired of telling people that I'm a man, not a damn horse! (This is a fictional poem.)
