A horseshoe

The prophet enters the town

with a look hard to understand

with no doubt the prophet

is carving the future now

there is something different

from other appearances of his

the blazonry

he is wearing a blazonry on his chest

representing a horseshoe

everybody was happy

to see with their own eyes

the big luck awaiting them

the prophet left

without saying anything

after a while

in a black ash cloud

horseman entered the town

on his tar horse

the one seeding terror

in the life and imagination of so many

the headless horseman

is searching for the lost horseshoe

surreal poetry
