"Drama of the Equestrian Provocateur"

by Jeph Johnson

 

"Provocateur" is a badge of honor that doesn't get enough respect.

 

For me it is about the only thing that engages my mind to deviate from the mundane.

 

Now to take the counterpoint position:

 

ENOUGH ALREADY!

Stop beating a dead horse!

 

For one, what feels like a "high horse" is usually a "dead horse."

 

Yes, sometimes issues see BOTH sides saddled up to stallions with X's across their eyes.

 

Only when the riders dismount can solutions be found.

 

Sadly the solutions are seldom universal. But in order to subdue conflicts, a large percentage of individual truths must remain personal.
