Oh, this is scary, Sulriel! It seems like they are surrounded by horrors -- so heartwrenching!
I feel so strongly for this horse, and he/she seems real to me.... Very well done!

Oh, yes -- I do like this version better! I think rearranging the lines does increase the impact (though I hadn't previously noticed the "flaws" you solved -- but the author always knows best )
I think mentioning the horse's name first really does sharpen the focus, also.....
