A collection of seven small horses have been gathered into a herd. I dust them when I must but rarely change their positions. Quite often I dust them too late.
There is another horse in this room, a tired horse in a painting, ridden by a knight. His armour has turned to rust. The horse has a drooping head. The knight is reading a gravestone with words I can’t translate.
The plants here are all artificial. I am not sure when that happened, but I confess to finding it sad. There are far too many cushions. There are books all over the place. There are stones I have silently gathered, each from a special place.
