Kit Kelen #965 - this is how we burn witches

965

this is how we burn witches 

 

set out an arbitrary rule

like think of a number

fix it in the mind

whistle the dogs will come

learn your tables

some would like this tucked up, swept

it's only a whisper of gossip to light

matches and kerosene these days

see them swoon away in the fumes

once alight

they burn by themselves

fire of hell's already in them

don't have to be grownups for this

and this is the way we wash our hair

wash our hair wash our hair

this is the way we wash our hair

so early in the morning

time passes over the event

I like the screams the best
