Did the Earth Just Shake?  
If I would make a wish 
That never will come true 
My life could end minutes 
After screaming world's end 
Watch and enjoy the sights 
BTW, never have I 
Ever fallen off my horse 
Preakness jockey did today 
Might the world come to its end

It is a shock when a Preakness jockey falls off his horse. Maybe the horse is tired of racing. I feel sorry for them.
ReplyDeleteThe world may very well come to its end, in more ways than one.
ReplyDeleteI love the question mixed with the jockey falling off his horse. The horse kept racing anyway.
ReplyDeleteI giggled out loud as the riderless horse completed the race! His instinct might have gone two ways, run with the pack OR walk off the track and say the Hell with it.
ReplyDeleteI loved that the horse finished the race on his own! Teresa from Razzamadazzle
ReplyDeleteI think it might very well happen that earth goes on without humanity just like the riderless horse.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful but sad thought, Bjorn.
