Dirty Deeds

where did you sleep 
last night little spirit
where did you go when
i let your dirty deeds
slide? 
i heard from everyone
you were begging for a
ride to escape me, to
forget what you had
seen.
but i'm not worried i
saw your footprints outside
imagined how you scurried 
like a rodent from a hungry
beast. 
it was the least i could
do, to lick the salt from
your brow; open wide&
allow your curiosity
to blossom inside.
i peer outside, waiting.
