she brought hebenon to pour into my ears
she bought some chocolate too to
fill my dead ear furrows to grow some potatoes
don't call her a murderer, it's my fate
after she plucked my beautiful eyes she
said I didn't understand that she wanted
to see her youth and smile in them
don't call her a white witch, she
has no mirror
have you seen how God has pumped
the gray earth into a mountain over there?
that's what she told me, adding
how she wished He could pump
my miserly heart a bit into generous balloons
don't call her a Hitler, she's a divine blunder
she'll tattoo her name on my forehead as
my new sexy neighbor has just said
that she is a lucky woman
she has torn all 13s in our calendars too
don't call her jealous, it's all about love
she's so sorry if she'll be tearing my leg too for
she has lost her golf club; my precise gait
might finally help her
don't call her a murderer
where's her tee?
can't see it
