The Bones (Told Me)A Poem by Desert KnaveA pre-Halloween write that I think I will rework another time
I didn't bark at the moon tonight
As the bones told me it was not safe (Ignoring the bones is not too bright) I didn't light the bundles tonight As the need not to was all too plain (Won't use up juju until all's right) I didn't bark at the moon tonight Or call up the redhead on my brain (But I bet tonight she's quite the sight) I didn't cast any spells tonight As the bones told me it was not safe (They'll let me know when the time is right)
