The Golden Bough

 The Golden Bough 


why do we have to 

sacrifice again 


rains don’t come

nothing grows 


you only know 

what the corn knows 


gods are angry

take off your clothes 


squeeze betel 

on your face  


rub it deep 

into your skin 


kill the bull

drink from the head 


feel the spirit 

feel strength 


why do we have to be 

so primitive 


these are the times 

in which we live
