Robot Horse Roundup

In a dystopian future where the old West is a theme park filled with robotic animals, narrate the tale of an ageing cowboy taming a rebellious robot horse for a big rodeo event.

Introducing the world of the future to the heartland of Western tales churns out an unconventional story. Explore the juxtaposition of man versus machine, the laughter and lament at modern versions of traditional practices, and the possible nostalgia for a time when horses were flesh and blood. This prompt could be leaned to satire, humour or introspection depending upon the writer’s choice.
