you pay a fare
ride a stare
the horseman show care
theyer around
line s or up and down
to start near city parks
its a marriage

There was a headless horseman one day
he was probably a norseman I’d say
they’re caffeine wedded
should drink unleaded
Dem Norskies get carried away
The headless horseman
Appears to folk on dark nights
They scream like banshees
The black steed gallops away
Frightened by such loud noises
For Suzette’s tanka contest
The Rusted Gate.
The rusted gate airs a bungalow haunted by headless Horseman.

our world is hell, if where you dwell,
pain and suffering is near,
no need to go to Satans hell,
it's a bit more subtle here...
re: "Orphan in the Dock" Harry Horseman
by Don Johnson
He rides alone and conquers all,
he already has so he just sits at home,
waiting for the right time to strike the friendly foe with a perfect smile,
he knows the path he must eternally walk battling evil by which he is stalked
Headless horseman came in the dead of night, but he made no sound.
His stallion did though – it neighed and whinnied and twirled around.
You must have been in Sleepy Hollow a relative said.
He is more unimaginative than a skeleton dead.
Lone walk. Fear the night.
Soft footsteps.. black.. still, spooky.
Fast flutter... Owl hoots.
Neck hairs standing up!
Headless horseman..giddyup!
Eerie pumpkin grins...
Noises behind me...
Closer....hot breath on my neck!!
Beat feet! Run like heck!!!

A cold, creepy Halloween night.
What Katrina found gave her a fright.
It was the head of Ichabod Crane-
Of headless horseman fame.
She waited for him to ride by.
Closed her eyes and held his head way up high.
The next day Crane was back teaching his class.
As if 230 years never passed.
morning came with rain
rapping a melody sweet. . .
calm bird flutters wings

Fourth Place
indonesian beaches and
days of infinite hunger
drunk and repellent
I am again
there’s no time for fishy flattery
'cause god called a horseman
flogging a dead horse
outlaw of the oscillation nation
playing with matches
by the gas-works
and I have this foreboding
of foreign foods
and fishmonger hooks
Subjugator of Rome's eagle
Hero of the sacred flame
Able and gentle horseman
Patron of the paraclete
Upholder of the holy dove
Renowned as the King of Kings
(Poem in honour of Shapur I, who ruled the Sasanian Empire from 240 – 270 AD, known for his religious tolerance and victory over the Roman Empire)
O-ctober flames of pumpkin eyes, stoked.
C-reepy coldness at our backs. Tales
T-old with ale — the headless horseman.
O-ff he rides in the wind.
B-rr, wind wool scarf ‘round neck.
E-ars shudder as the narrator says,
“R-est your heads for awhile, friends.”

Are you set to sleep, if you dare to do so
Music starts for no one on this fearful night
The pumpkins shine brighter so that we may go
Sleeping without an escape plan for tonight
The headless horseman comes out for your head now
Listen in the deep for the great cat’s meow
To bed my little one, to dream land, it’s time
You won’t have the saving grace, there’s no lifeline
Russell Sivey
The fourth horseman now comes,
in search of your kin.
The suffering is great,
souls scream to the wind.
Number four now strikes,
no remorse and no sin.
He brings death to your door,
do not let him in.
This fourth horse is pale,
there is nowhere to hide.
Nothing can save you,
your wealth nor your pride.
Please don't wait too long,
being stubborn and not see.
You still can be saved,
if in faith you will believe.
Saša Milivojev - THE LAST HORSEMAN
White, everything is white
The walls are moving
A body in hospital sheets
White horses pull the bed
The soul crawls behind them and begs
White
Around the bed
Angels dance in a circle
The sky sheds its clothes
Give me back my body
To forge my heart
I do not want to travel anymore
Through this endless field
Wrapped in white sheets

The autumn leaves scattered along the road
Draw the eyes to a misty foggy night
Blurred in the shadows a scary abode
Too misty for travellers in the night
Before the daybreak when the mist explodes
Just when thickness surrounds wrapping so tight
There comes forth a gallant horseman to lead
Mortality freed, immortality concede

“Listen to that timber roar.
But deny the musical notes of war.” The man says
The 13th horseman laughs and replies
“I am the one that rides the night.
Upon my view, even the devil, Hail Mary he recites.
Lust is my personal harlot
It seems even bliss flips in the bosom of my fist, just wish and I shall grant.
For I am the 13th horseman
There is No soul I cannot condemn.
So let us take a journey down this crimson road,
Together. ”
Galloping horses shudder the ground as .....Two
Horsemen draw lashes, striking forth on .....Roads
parallel. Dawn appears through trees and roads .....Diverge
one to the east, the other south. Horseman one .....In
earnest, upon a life depends, carries .....A
somber secret, written on .....Yellow
parchment ; on it drawn a nail through hand and .....Wood
I pick and scratch and stretch
Mutilate
Infect
Bleed
It drives me, separate
From relief
Akin to hunger.
Manual breathing
Counting
The minutes
The bites
The steps
Call it a quirk
I name it demand.
Addiction
What is an addict…
There is no powder
Or liquid
But still I feel ants under my skin
Until the ritual is complete.
Compulsion is one thing
Obsession another
But when the two meet,
The horseman ride
And I don’t know if the end will come.
When western winds in my ear sing
The memories of rivers bring
A horseman
Cut of rough land and bronze timber
Surefooted walk, lean and limber
Horsepower
I fumbled where he was at ease
Our hands would touch in flirty tease
Of horseplay
Through golden grass, me and my guy
Galloping free to chase the sky
On horseback
Now, in my city life, I keep
Over my bed, to grace my sleep
One horseshoe.
