“I write a card saying / machines grew the flowers I send / to throw into your grave.” Audre Lorde
      and black 
magic a few moments
     old generated a new idea

then to your tasted 
   experience and ending miraculous 
    and experience a burn
scraped from toast 

and ending black magic for good 
      a few seconds after  
the 
house fire
       is a good idea
 
    then 
you sternly told the 
         house it's an 
  idea this new beginning

the house black magic
is a good idea then you 
      permit a 
        good idea then you 
will have 
a good idea the house is a 
  good idea
 
the beginning 
and the black magic a few days on now
       the house is a good idea then your experience 
      and training a few weekend roses are red and 
ending 
 
black 
        magic 
a few weeks old
         the house a good idea 
      then 
  you took that beginning 
          and 
ending for kindling 
lit it 

black 
       magic and a 
garland of weekend ‬ 
red roses
 
           then you will have a good idea 
the house 
        is a 
god 

the house is a great year 
a good idea then you 
to 
        the 
river black magic
teach 

your experience 
i am a little bit
bitten with burn 
          your test trial taste
