Salem

I wrap myself in a black cloak,
and run through the trees.
I spin beneath the moonlight,
and sing with far away seas.

Am I to be burnt for enjoying
the beauty of nature?
Am I to be damned for loving
what God has given us?

...Then so be it...
But I will not leave...
Not that easily,
not so soon.

May your crops die,
and your farms fail.
and if you speak ill
of my murder,
may you grow a
damn pigs tail.
