Punish Horse Version Two (google poem)

Punish Horse Version Two (google poem)

The Three Times You Should Punish Your Horse ... that there are three times
you punish a horse for doing something wrong--never, never and never

That's why we teach our students that there are three times you punish
a horse for doing something wrong-- never, never and never

punish your horse. Use your voice to express your enormous disappointment
Then act completely disgusted by what she put in the waste can

Never punish your horse if she has an accident. She will not understand that
you are angry with her because she has soiled her sleeping spot

Never punish a horse for being "disobedient." Just put her back to
work. The Three Times You Should Punish Your Horse

sex does not eat a horse never more subsequently
quartered by four horses, his limbs and body consumed by fire

punish horse, punish horse, unattended corpse
insects drone behind their arrival

for most horses, the whip is there to teach not to punish
your horse when she does something bad. Can’t handle feet,

the problem may be your saddle not fitting her well
we don't want to punish your horse for bucking if she is bucking out of pain

sometimes they have to use a hammer, but that is not to punish your horse
