Tale Of The Demon's Dance Poem by Clive Culverhouse

aye! ye sing
nay dance!
demanded
o' the demon
in brighten'd tar
but wizen'd burr
gave sudden slip
did gape ‘n gash
‘pon cracken'd jar
fell he into a
midden pit
so ran the blood
‘n blood
did pour
‘n flood the pit
until it seep'd
to earthen soil
return ‘n weep'd
back to crop
o' hopeless toil
renew!
renewed!
sent demon blood
from whence
it came
this sermon
told


tar = Tarpauline coat
midden pit = pit for domestic waste
