Marengo from Marino

Sculpted like from alabaster

Great, just like Alexander

I go through it faster than the charge of the station master

When Japanese bullet trains pass through

More rapid than Glasgow’s fastest stallion goes

Blood’s doped with EPO

Head fucking huge from human growth

Hormone; that horse is yolked

Asked what’s the secret

Winked, “Homegrown”

Others moan as my souped up horse takes another gold home

They’re all souptaking prods, or of that mould

I’ve been planning this since ten years old

My father had the idea planted, and I was sold

IRA would love to get a hold

Take my horse like it was a Russburrough painting stolen

I’m holding his reins, in the rain he looks ghostly

His gains are natural, mostly

His hind famously sculpted, but not ungainly

His tail’s tapered, his rind brown and amazing

Every race he traipses is plain sailing.
