A hundred little horses could trample you…tear you to pieces. On the other hand, a big duck is just that— a big duck. Imagine what darkness must lurk in the minds of those miniature horses. Now remember that there are a hundred. Herd mentality kicks in. You could fend off a few…but in time I’m afraid the equines would dominate. And those high unearthly bleating whinnies-- would they never stop? Gives me chills just to contemplate it. Must get my meds.
