The Equus Equations
or
Mr. Education
"Few are familiar with each axiom of Logic --
while some even need a dictionary to look up 'axiom.'"
-- a Rational horse
(the one of a different color)

A horse is but a horse as Logic rules;
thus, though he has a thing or two to say,
he cannot talk in having not the tools
or yak a streak to waste the time of day.
A horse cannot be both a horse and not;
thus, never can he be a paradox,
or filly with a billy goat begot
by any holy fox unorthodox.
A horse is but a horse or not a horse;
thus, can he not to greener pastures fly,
or yet be born again from horse remorse
to serve a daddy unicorn on high.
At any law of Logic none can balk --
except the ass whose tooter loves to talk.

a dedication of Respect
for
each Sound Truth
yet high on its horse
with its Honest pride
a revolving helios sonnet shakespearean satire menippean on
backing the wrong horse --
the one of faith's horse feathers
april, 2023 -- still multiplying flocks of sheep
full fancying horses, like Pegasus, can fly --
or even talk,
like Mr. Ed
