Clint Eastwood Poem by Saiom Shriver

Clint Eastwood



He is a hero to
animals in East Woods
and West Woods
North Woods
and South Woods.

While horses are still
killed in Spanish and Mexican
bullfights, in Calgary
Stampede rodeos,
in Kentucky barn fires
and New Jersey horseracing
accidents, slaughtered in
Japanese, French and other
horse slaughterhouses,
the tripwiring of movie
horses in the US
is now a rare thing
because of him.
Author notes

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Many horses have broken their necks or legs or lost their lives as wires were stretched across paths to make them fall for 'realistic' battle or chase scenes. Tripwiring still occurs in many countries.
