Bola Knot
the subtle union in the knot,
used by sailors since time forgot,
a bowler knot, says my dad, says he,
bowline thinks me all at sea,
the no slip knot, tied horse, he got,
and still gets tied by me.
dinna choke the horse you see...
If a horse pulled back in fright,
he got strangled by a rope, did he,
knot that slipped, death could follow...
too bloody right...
"forget the knots" thanks Joe Maverick
