A witch’s scream
Has broken in
Has pierced the ears
Of frightened things
Cackling splits
Their mind like logs
Their legs asleep
And courage clogged
Door handles shake
And windows rattle
And smoky tendrils
Snake from the kettle
Have you time for
Some tea with granny?
For a taste of
My sweet meat cookies?
