My High Horse

I love your rhymes and word play. I feel there's a deeper meaning here but I can't figure it out

The analogy with the horse and all of its character is spot on. Enjoyed this a lot.

This struck me. Sometimes when I try to better myself or 'ride a high horse' it's easy and I feel good about myself. Other times I succumb to my temptations with a 'guilty grin.' I also liked the 'smokers coughing fit' line. As someone trying to quit the habit I can relate lol. Great imagery too

Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our feedback guide, or look through the comment sections of any other post here, or click the links to the author's feedback above. If you're not sure whether your comments are feedback, or you have any other questions, please send us a modmail.
