Exploited Unicorn

Dreamed 2019/1/11 by Wayan

Night. A downtown corner. A unicorn. White coat, gold horn, smaller than most ponies--the size of a small wolf or deer. A carnival barker--or is he a pimp?--roars "Yoooonicorrrn! Just $300 an hour!"

"Just"? Sounds pretty steep to me. And the unicorn looks miserable. I'm not so sure she even gets a cut. Treated like a slave. Is this even legal? But he's so loud and open, her suffering's so obvious! He must feel quite safe--some right-wing judge ruled she's an animal, or he bought off the local cops, or maybe they just don't care. They never did about human girls getting enslaved and pimped after all.

To me she is sexy, both her body and the glow of her magic. An attraction so strong that if she were out on this corner alone, I'd gladly pay her. I can't criticize prostitution if it's truly a free choice. But this isn't. I can't subsidize slavery!

Or... maybe she's rented out for healing, not sex? Unicorns are, traditionally, powerful healers. A mere touch of that horn can work miracles. Only... can you force an enslaved unicorn to heal not skewer?

Either way, I feel frustrated and helpless. She needs rescue, but the big guy's mocking eye tells me he's seen do-gooders try it before.

I'm so pulled toward her! But he's in the way. Barker, businessman, capitalist... pimp.

NOTES IN THE MORNING

TWO YEARS LATER

Now, deep in the Covid pandemic, that pimp profiting off healing magic seems rather pointed. Trump's other policies (like betraying the Kurds in northern Syria) killed hundreds or at most a few thousand, no more than Obama; but his Covid policy killed hundreds of thousands.
