twasn’t an absence of belief in
hexes or voodoo shit, black magic,
witches or warlocks,
which brought to mind the maddening

couldn’t be wrong &
they came anyway---
chirping their nocturnal nonsense...

applying War Paint hiding Scars

some endure this wasteland because
they have to,
not because they want to---
