a pair of horses appeared out of nowhere
(our neighbors don't even have horses)
silhouettes camouflaged
against the night sky
appropriately, later that night
he drew the Horse card
from the deck
i stopped running
to collect fifty grey feathers;
they were scattered in piles
in the middle of the trail
some had blown into the grass.
the sun was quickly disappearing,
these were its parting gift
