From a small island room at Hotel Five,
You can catch the pace of the bicycle ferry
Where guests walk in tea to go dining.
The formal course allows for slower
meals along the horse-ripped walk.
A surrealist poem by Gail

Okay. Horse-ripped keeps making me think of horse-whipped. Anyone else? The rest is really serene and non-confrontationally mind bending. Kind of melty.

I was thinking, torn up by hooves, but I did notice the similarity to "horse-whipped." The pun didn't bother me because surrealism is always (at least for me) a little ambiguous and a little funny along with it. I liked the picture of vacationers dining formally and serenely in a vaguely menacing setting.

A mad tea party sort of thing.

Torn up by horses is less violent than I'd imagined. I had Passion of the Christ (not that I've seen it) in mind. Carry on.

I just realized that horse-ripped walk is a spoonerism for horse-whipped rock. I have no empathy for silicon based geo-forms.
