Where was the werewolf
When we needed him?
Off playing with Barbie dolls
With his sisters
And here we are, blind as bats
And branded as witches
Not a spell working
To free us
He alone had the ear of the master
Learnt all the words
Hunted out the scorpion of sorcery
Then used it
For heart breaks,
Cup cakes
And the resurrection of a pet rabbit.

Sounds like my kind of werewolf. I can understand wanting to resurrect a pet rabbit. I love that you managed to keep your piece somewhat light-hearted. These words were definitely challenging! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThat last verse is divine..surreal...real..delicious :)
ReplyDeleteThis is very clever....using spells for cupcakes..ingenious.
ReplyDeleteLove the lines about the pet rabbit and cupcakes. It does add touch of whimsical to teh poem but in surreal way.
