From the kingdom of darkness
witches fly out
not with brooms, with feathers
that sharpen like arrows.
Opinionated they call them
because they have no compunction
Unearth crime, transas
and the occasional contempt of court
No macho or quarrelsome
to be saved from its ink
and do not let go of their inkwell
not even if they are threatened
These witches are mules
and instead of being at home
taking care of children and dishes
rampage with words
The reaper is looking for them
she has been hired by some kingpin
to silence those voices
that make him uncomfortable, what a naco!
But she loves these witches
with data, letters and commitment,
death joins their ranks
and the bad guys get collars
