A Chain Halter
October 4, 2018
Warm, polished leather,
Eager crowds.
Aggressive, Unconditional.
Love and Passion.
Nosepiece, crown, buckle.
Eight-hundred pound animal.
Beast, Yourself
Chaos and Control
Cold, smooth chain,
Pull it tight.
High head, Straight pins,
Tall and Proud
Polish the leather,
Control the Chaos,
Pull the chain,
You and Yourself.
