question: what is metaphorical about the horse

poem2026-11-06

i think horses have a lot of capital as a metaphor (think wildness and power in conjunction with animal tenderness, perhaps). there are a lot of poems i love featuring horses, but i’ll direct you towards “what i didn’t know before” by ada limón and “a blessing” by james wright specifically.
