Haircut (III)
Maybe I'll sprinkle them into a black-iron cauldron
Together with the heart of a doe, the eye of a nightingale
The song of a dragon captured mid-flight
The memory of roses, and a maiden's sigh.
Stirred three times widdershins, and left to stand beneath a blue moon
For all of three midnights.
A brew to make your eyes look, when they fall upon me
The same way mine do, when they fall upon you.

The same way mine do, when they fall upon you.
