Ignorances and Death

"Muscles and Ribs

Dust and Starvation

Bridles and Martingales

Saddles and Girths

Blankets and Bits

Shoes and Ropes

Rawhide and Leather

Blood and Sores

Runs and Maneuvers

Attempts and Failures

Losses and Falls

Calls and Hate

Predators and Enemies

Hunters and Trainers

Killers and Abusers

Blackouts and Hallucinations

Rats and Mold

Must and Water

Rotten and Cold"
