How to Break the Spell
To make sense
make sense. Pile
all your lofty verses
in Latin or whatever,
one on top of the
other, ’til you’ve
got some sort of
doddering tower.
Life is short.
Let those words
simmer for an ex
cruciating amount of
time. Then boil them.
Boil those bitches* away.
Curses
And remember,
it’ll never work
if it hinges on
a sexist trope.
