Capping it Off - the Headless Horseman Takes a New Form
(Inspired by a Most Flashy Equestrian Exhibitor at the Midwest Horse Fair 2008, "Dancing with Horses.")
The horseman is headless, they say.
He rides on a spirited bay,
His hair in the breeze,
As he gallops with ease.
He stored his crash helmet away.
The horseman, he must use his head,
And not by appearance be led.
Just strap on his cap
For his victory lap,
So vultures above won't be fed.
