I just noticed some lines in a Bob Dylan song - "A hard rain's a gonna fall". As soon as I got over the ridiculousness of dead pony girl, I felt like "---wait a moment I know who this verse is about.
Here's the lyrics:

Oh, who did you meet my blue-eyed son ?
Who did you meet, my darling young one ?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
I met another man who was wounded in hatred
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.


My interpretation:
Death
Dream
Despair
Delirium
Desire
Destruction

:)

Dream is a bit forced, but the situation with the dog seems so pointless-but-maybe-it-has-a-hidden-meaning.

Edit: A year and a few years later: I'd reverse the positions of desire and despair.
