...A Poem by Ookpikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9qBsmZnB5w
.
. . Kill em' with Candles . . I watched her try to light a candle That'd been centered upon the coffee table - Fishing, almost, casting blindly For the tail-end of a wick. . I watched her strike the match Across a strip of red phosphorous And then sightlessly guide The glowing flash of light . Towards the candle's twisted tip. . . Blind, though she was, Old, so she'd been, I swore, she'd nearly found it. . . .
