THE COMPANY OF HORSES---Why did you leave the horse alone?---To keep the house company, my son.~MAHMOUD DARWISHLeft alone they will follow tree lines or fence lines, or any courseskeeping them from whatever’s on the other side. I live by horsesin the nearby fields. I run past them every day on my morning run.My wife takes pictures of her favorite ones and talks to the horsesknowing they know something we’re not sure they know. Notverbs or nouns, or syntax, but something of the timbre horsesknow of company, something of the tone of company. I hear them when other horses pass by in trailers off to some place the horses in these pastures will not travel to. I do not know the languageof whinny but I do not doubt that there is something in horses pitch being said about need and love and kinship and wantingcompany. Cows, goats, crows, geese, lambs living with horses,and chickens, pigeons and doves and bees know more thanwe think they do. Chagall knew lambs. Picasso knew horses.Look at the village dreams of the one and terror of bombingsin the other. In all the places you live in, look for the horses.
