wish-horse

If wishes were horses, genies
would win. They'd have it so 
easy, as billowing smoke 
from the lamp fills us in
- a genie appears! With
whinnying wishes, stamped
hooves and tossed manes,
we begin. "So, what do you 
wish for? the genie rubs hands!
"A horse," we grouse. "Wish 1! 
My command!" With each wish, 
the next horse would change sides. 

But really,
we could
wish for that 
if we tried.
