One Horse In The Stable Poem by Haruna Garba

Single wide stable
Single wafting stallion
Pests each with a needle
Think of physical nuisance

Stable flies with pricks
Horn flies nipping snouts
Tributaries of issuing blood
The tethered only wafts a tail

Deer flies ripping the veins
Bot flies laying catastrophic eggs
Bared tributaries from below the skin
Yet the tethered but only stomps his legs

Alfalfa beetles defiling the hay
Face flies assembling around the eyes
Lots and lots of physical nuisance
The tethered horse only swings a tail
