The Devil’s Teapot
—a witches brew
Remembrance poured
in sorrows true
The Devil’s Teapot
bone china cracked
New leaks a bane
in virtue lacks
The Devil’s Teapot
it fills once more
With pain now forked
to stir rancor
The Devil’s Teapot
whose lid seals tight
To curse and scald
—this endless night

The Devil’s Teapot
