Taglock
I tag you by your fingernail clippings,
lock them into the folds of a small doll,
hidden from sight, and cast my spells.
Wicked witch? No, it’s a healing
I am bringing about for you
by means of this magical connection.
Secretive? No again. You knew.
You willingly gave them to me,
these cast off pieces of you, when I asked.
these cast off pieces of you, when I asked.
But it’s easy now to disbelieve
‘all that silly superstition’
when you’re walking around well.
