THERE
SHE WAS ALL NEEDLES AND SHEARS
LACE
AND FABRICS RIGHT UP TO HER EARS
SHE
WORKED ALL NIGHT THROUGH CANDLE LIT DARK
SNIPPING
AWAY UNTIL THE CALL OF THE LARK
SNORTING
UP SUBSTANCES TO KEEP HER AWAKE
SHE
STARTED TO QUIVER THEN BEGAN TO SHAKE
HER
FACE TURNED PALE, A GHOSTLY WHITE
SHE
SET FIRE TO THE SOFA TO GIVE HER SOME LIGHT
SHE
STARTED TO DRIBBLE THEN STARTED TO DROOL
A
LENGTH OF YARN WAS PULLED FROM A SPOOL
HER
EYES WENT OPAQUE THEN TURNED BLOOD RED
BUGGER
THIS , SHE SAID, I’M OFF TO BED.
