“Russian Retailers See Horse Sales Surge Amid Worsening Gasoline Deficit”
—United 24

With gasoline in short supply,
the marketplace endorses
the vehicle that says goodbye
to fossil fuel—it’s horses!

Envision riding noble steeds
just like the upper class—
a luxury that only needs
a stable and some grass.

So, look this gift horse in its mouth—
no car today can beat it.
If things continue going south,
remember: you can eat it!
