I’m Your Horse in the Night In reading this short story, I couldn’t help but realize that the woman here was trying to distinguish dream from reality. Well, she wasn’t really trying to distinguish the two, but more or less was trying to interpret what her dream meant. To me, obviously, I’m your horse in the night was meant to be nothing other than a sexual meaning. He “rides” her and she is to lay there in a trance of confusion. The main reason she was confused was simply because “Beto” was someone that she loved, and yet had heard nothing from him within the previous six months. The woman’s point of view left me with the impression that, true, she loved him, but I can interpret this story as she hated him just as much at the same time. The reason I interpret it this way is because in modern days, if some guy sleeps with a woman and leaves immediately after, she is left in a dazed emotion, like she is loved, but when she doesn’t hear from the person, she immediately hates him.
