*** Poem Release ***
*** Sacrifice
***
by 'Barry R. Long'
as I held the knife
tightly in my hand
her life's blood seeped into the
land
watched blood roll down the blade
a sacrificial knife
that was handmade
the shaft was crafted with precision
designed
to create a perfect incision
I slit her fine throat from ear to
ear
while the onlookers they did cheer
sliced her belly, out
flowed intestine
then checked the liver, it looked fine
the
signs are good for wealth in the plan
we are blessed with this
sacrificial lamb
