In lieu of actual content

Not much to report today, obviously.  Hot hot hot here.

So in lieu of pictures or anything cool, I present a haiku.  I posted this on Facebook already, so it's old news for some people, but ... I'm kind of proud of it.  The actual-haiku muse occasionally visits me; yknow, the one who inspires real, not silly, haiku.  Haiku with a kigo -- a seasonal word -- and a sense of cutting and juxtaposition.   The junk haiku muse lives in my closet, but I try to keep her quiet.  ;)   Anyway, this is horse-related, so here you go:

Hoofbeats come closer
Parched alfalfa, sweat, and dust
I am very small
