Wilson's Words

This is a piece I have refound in my old creative note book from my first year at Uni (I'm still in my second well just started my second).

For those of you who are reading this and are members to the writelink.co.uk website you can review this piece in the Poetry Arena but for those who enjoy reading writing rather than writing it or have come across my blog because your bored or typed Halloween into search or some other random way of coming across my blog; well I am putting this up for you to see and hopefully enjoy.

Oh it isn't the kind of poem with rhyming in it if that's what you are hoping for. If anything it's more prose.

A recipe from a Witches Cook Book: Human Haggis

Take one human stomach, empty or full and drown it,
Several times, vigorously.
Whilst it drowns take the heart and remove it
From the blood vessels with a pair of jagged scissors.
Then remove the stomach and lay it on some hot coals,
As the stomach hisses and sizzles cut and slice the gristly bits
Of the lungs and finally free the liver from the rest of the corpse.

Add the organs into a large cauldron,
(Preferably the old slow-cooking kind)
To boil and simmer.
Add any spices or herbs if you can find any.
Whilst the other parts are cooking turn the stomach inside out
And line the innards with nettles and slug slime.
(To help the furry side is the outside of the stomach, you want
To make that the inside by turning it inside out.)
Once other organs are boiled to death need them to a pulp
Using some dragon teeth.
(Just ignore the fat and blood it all adds flavour.)

Stuff the stomach with the pulp and then use spider leg needles
To stitch the stomach into a full bag with no holes.
Place again into a bubbling cauldron and leave to stew until
The next full moon.

When ready serve upon a lambs jawbone with seaweed
And maybe some children’s toe nails as seasoning.
Give to the Devil and hope he likes it.

The perfect Hallows Eve dish.
