A poem

 

A past of blood, uncovered before your eyes;

a curse, spoken in vain, from a girl that dies;

and a mind, modern and free to explore

justice is all this young woman is looking for.

 

Deep in the forest, hidden from the village;

a pile of ash, the last remains of a witch;

a blood-moon, a journey to the beginning;

will the church be allowed of winning?
