Stampede
Wild horses trapped
A top a canyons mesa
Exit blocked
All vegetation eaten
Rescue late.
Mustangs in a panic
Hungry wolves circling
Alone on a pinnacle of rock
Sound of hooves
Echoing on sandstone.
Wolves howling
Ravens cawing
The desperate attempt to survive
Leap the gap to the next mesa
Off Dead Horse Mesa forever.

The write itself gave a sense of trepidation as if it too was running as wild as the beasts, nicely captured, the emotion, the picture :)

Wow great write and especially about being trapped and hunted at the same time and what you will do to try and save your life
