Oh...my...GAWD. Spaw, I wonder? Was this your chosen seduction technique on the naive maidens you once romanced in your bygone youth? A deeply moving (no pun intended), highly poetic, impassioned and idealistic, wellnigh visionary intro....followed by a gross and primitive concluding act?

(shudder)

Nice intro, though. If you raised horses and wrote sci-fi novels, I bet they'd be almost as good as William Shatner's.
