Straight from the Horse’s Mouth

O’ dear friends, it’s me, Barbaro!
I’m writing to let you all know
That although I am gone
Fertilizing the lawn
There’s a message I wish to bestow.
You “animal rights” people claim
That my death was a terrible shame
But I’d rather be dead
Than cooped up in a shed
And be forced to run circles for fame.
So relax, for it could have been worse
Like The Godfather scene so perverse
My head in a bed
In a pool of bloodshed
(Or worse yet, a cheap leather purse!)
The fact of the matter, you see
Is that running makes me want to pee
I’d much rather rot
Than set off in trot
With some little fucking jockey.
So fans of mine, please, no remorse!
I’ve just become “One with the Force”
I like being glue
So I bid you adieu
FOR CHRIST’S SAKE I’M JUST A DAMN HORSE!

When Barbaro died, fokes felt down,
As when injury cost him th Crown.
If only they knew,
He been made into glue,
Theyd see him still stickin around.

As Barbaro’s friend I would agree,
That running in circles does make you pee.
Even though Barbaro is made of glue,
You animal rights enthusiase please don’t feel blue.
Barbaro will always be known as a powerful steed,
And his legacy will continue from his frozen seed.
A trip and fall cost him the crown,
And now he is burried under ground.
But at the end of the day he was just a horse,
So focus on your own lives and stay of this course.

Sirdar: Nope, see, the title of the post is “Straight from the Horse’s Mouth”. Barbaro wrote this, not me.
