Don't you ever sass no
Hoodoo woman, child.
She drag you to your grave;
Throw you in, she will.
Then she dance
A happy jig,
Say your name
And have herself
A slave.
Okay, so this wasn't my original post for today. Last night, I had a dream, and when I woke up, this was in my head. It's not my normal stuff, but who am I to argue with a Hoodoo woman?
Oh this is great! I love it! ^__^
ReplyDeleteThanks. I guess that pizza before bed helped...

DeleteYou nailed the southern thingy. I'm very careful who I sass AND it wouldn't be her. She makes me nervous! Well done...per usual!
ReplyDeleteThis is great. The dialect, the rhythm. Everything.
