SADNESS

 

When Baba Yaga weeps each tear

Is a different color. By the time 

They've trickled down her nose and

Over her lips and paused on her chin

They're solidifying so that they make

Small sounds -- clicks and clanks, mostly --

When they hit the floor of her hut.

After a while you'd think someone

Had upset a jar of marbles.
