Through the forest tear thirteen fine thoroughbreds
Fraught with tension they flick their fair heads
Thrashing through the thickest thickets fittest first
Thundering from forest for the fields they thirst
Freed from their flight they finish together
Thirteen fine thoroughbreds frolic forever

With a snakelike hiss, the train doors close
the engine rocks and rumbles on clicking
over welded metal couplings: iced, glazed, froze,
the steam heat in clouds arose, rail licking.
On velvet we sit, lace behind our heads,
stewards bring tea for the clock is ticking.
High tea at five, we're fed like thoroughbreds
for dinners late (at eight) in formal dress.
A honeymoon for two not quite purebreds.

Yes, it's the racing carnival,
Fashionistas so topical,
Significance trivial,
Lovely fillies,
Eye candy,
Drunk and silly,
Studs in suits,
Looking beaut,
Glitterati,
Haves and wannabes,
For the paparazzi,
Doyens of the racing industry,
You all look fabulous,
Gambling magnanimous,
Thoroughbreds' gloss,
Media hype and dross,
Great racing day,
Booze, bets and babes,
Stuff the plebs today,
Our public holiday,
Melbourne Cup Day!

Trump's little tramp came out of the woodwork
and was treated like royalty-so was Kavanaugh's.
Suddenly the little donkeys turned into lathered up thoroughbreds.
Racing up and down the d.c track
neighing... "always believe a woman...me to"
Clinton and Biden's battered harem came forward...
and were treated like lying whores.
Nothing but lonely chirps from the democrickets…
believe a woman …. me to but only if its colored blue...
chirp......chirp...……………..chirp

So here I am in Saratoga,
Quite a lovely place,
But visitors must do their part
And watch the horses race.
The weather was cooperative;
The seats were in the shade.
The thoroughbreds looked just the way
That racers are portrayed.
Such fun it was to place a bet
And root with all my might.
Though winning was the icing,
I enjoyed each single bite.
I love the town of Saratoga -
Hope that I'll come back;
But if I do then once again,
You'll find me at the track.
