[Rob Stuart]

My first time posting on this site, so here goes. Pick the bones out of these, if you'll pardon the pun.

No Briton I know of endorses
The Equidae as human food sources,
But in France scoffing fillies
Gives no-one the willies-
It really is horses for courses.


The horses that vanished from stables
Have now reappeared, on our tables.
I don’t care if it mooed
If it’s tasty when stewed-
After all, what are species but labels?


To the Parisian or Berliner
It is common to have horse for dinner,
But Britons don’t favour
The thought or the flavour
Of last year’s Grand National winner.
