Immolate

IMMOLATE

transitive verb:
1. To sacrifice; to offer in sacrifice; to kill as a sacrificial victim.
2. To kill or destroy, often by fire.





Those forests I torched
To immolate – a precautionary measure -
The lying words that you might one day think
And write.

Hey, guess who's arrived on your blog! Close the windows, bat down the hatches... it's ME.

These are wonderful/superb/magnificent. I love them. Where do you get these ideas? I feel like a turnip. Really.

You can make a really nice stew out of turnips - 'navarin d'agneau'.
