Do the horses know they're racing?

Do they think they want to win?
Do they know their owners will get richer
and buy them new
Louis Vuitton feedbags?
Hmm?

The horse I used to own seemed to enjoy pitting herself against other horses on a run. She'd lay her ears back and go for it without encouragement.

I wonder if they raced
in the wild.

I've always wondered "what if they don't want to run?" What if that day they just don't feel like it? Or when they were used to plow the fields...what if they didn't want to work that day?

I always thought it too when they do the horsejumping. Fuck that, not only does the horse way a billion pounds, so does the fuck on his back. "Fuck that, I ain't jumping over shit today."

You hear about these horisng "accidents." Mysterious ones.
"Why, everything was just fine, and then Bessie just reared up on her hind legs as if something had scared her, and lurched forward, launching Mr. Reeves forward and breaking his neck in two."
We all know what really happened.
HE FREAKED
OUT!!
That fucking horse couldn't take it anymore. But why...why SUPERMAN?!!!

Frankly, I was never a fan of Superman. What can Superman inspire really? Nothing but wonder, fascination.
But think about Batman. the ultimate superhero. The root of Batman is Revenge, we know that, but he does something productive with his desire for revenge. He crusades against injustice, and he does it relying on no magical superpowers, only his own mental and physical prowess and his ability to use the tools around him.
Though, it did help that Bruce Wayne was rich as fuck.
But what a message. You got yourself a fortune, what are you gonna do with it? I'm going to dress up like a bat and fight injustice. Fuck yeah!
