Untamed
Sarah Brower 1995 (New Jersey)
Don’t dare tame this wild horse!
let her drink her freedom
let her stand on her hind legs
in the repelling face of adversity
May her mane make love
to the fierce tasmanian devil
and once her potent voice unmutes
may her truth break egos into powder
They sit and scoff gnashing their teeth
who are they to tie majestic hands
she unravels these knots
keeping a noose to adorn such threats
