Salem, O Salem what were you about?
It all started in 1692
It was dark, it was cold, a bit of snow still on the ground
People arrested for witchcraft and some sentenced to death
19 people that year took their final breath
People were drowned or killed with fire
some people even hung with rope or wire
Witch trials didn't just happen in Salem
They happened all over the world
The first is believed to be a woman named Angele Babin for *** with the devil
And the last Bridget Cleary whose crime was unclear
I wonder how many of these people confessed in fear
We are monsters of our own making
we cause fear and we ****
Those that do no longer do it for protection
they do it for the thrill
But their is no thrill in taking a life
there was wasn't then and there isn't now
how could you take a life, that is my question. HOW

Please leave feedback, personally I don't think this one is that good but I finished it so I thought I would post it.
