It’s all about wildness
\nAnd a spiritual need
\nThat survival instinct
\nThat in any breed
\nThe street cred
\nThe wilderness knowledge
\nThat speaks
\nIt’s really a therapy
\nWith troughs and with peaks<\/p>\n
Arizona State Prison
\nLand Management’s way
\nOf clearing large numbers
\nOf horses each day
\nThe conviction of trying
\nThe dogma of doubt
\nConvinced and confiding
\nReally coming out<\/p>\n
Building up trust
\nAn unquestioning path
\nWith various tenets
\nAway from the wrath
\nAnd the anger and mayhem
\nTo a softly approach
\nTo learn to be patient
\nAnd Willing to broach
\nThe need to confide
\nTo confess in a way
\nTo a tenable future
\nWhich turns out that way<\/p>\n
The men are as wild
\nAs the horses and so
\nTheir whispering methods
\nCreate and do show
\nAnd unquestioning reason
\nTo be gentle to
\nA wild soul whose manner
\nAnd schooling was true<\/p>\n
It’s one hell of a programme
\nResponse is the key
\nThe wild horse may challenge
\nThat’s how it should be
\nBut the wild man he thinketh
\nAlong Similar lines
\nAnd with faith and commitment
\nThe truest of signs<\/p>\n
Is both learn from each other
\nIt’s a simple address
\nIt perhaps is a breakthrough
\nA reason to bless
\nBoth hearts and minds
\nIn what is an affair
\nAn unbiased look
\nAt how to be aware<\/p>\n
And what do we see
\nWild horses of course
\nWhere would we be without the old horse
\nBut also we see wild men
\nAll aglow
\nLooking inside themselves
\nWanting to know
\nHaving that proof
\nIt’s a testable way
\nOf seeing themselves
\nIn the white light of day<\/p>\n
And few will return
\nWhen their time is that they
\nAre ready to go out
\nFor they have paved their way
\nThey have found themselves
\nThey were lost after all
\nBut now they are found
\nAnd they know how to call
\nThe shots as it were
\nThey can train, they can be
\nSomeone again
\nWhen they get free<\/p>\n
They learn don’t hold grudges
\nAnd be soft and true
\nTherein lies their strength
\nZero experience
\nThat was their need
\nWith so much to learn
\nAnd so much to concede<\/p>\n
And all of the time
\nBeing prepared to give
\nTo express as a whisper
\nThe reason we live
\nTo love from the heart
\nTo give and to do
\nAnd to be and to see
\nTo be free to be true<\/p>\n
A spiritual connection
\nA mystical way
\nA new ideology
\nSprings forth they say
\nThere is no confrontation
\nJust belief and desire
\nTo work with the premiss
\nTo confide and inspire<\/p>\n
A truly remarkable film that takes wild hearts
\nIn Florence a state run prison facility
\nIn Arizona<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
