Joan Of Arc
Sun City Girls

nPicture me in some abandoned corner and listen closely to what you think I may be saying. If voices were toys we could have so much fun,nbut I'd rather take them apart and see how they run.nIf the voice of St. Joan were a supplement for thoughts culled from memory, would you feel her pain as if it were your very own? (I doubt it.)nIf her voice were made of wax and it burned at the wick,nwould its smoke hover in the air and turn black and thicknand sing songs of torture that would make you feel sick?nYep, you guessed it, it's the year 1431 and the guards are leading Joan of Arc to the courthouse where the inquisition will try her on the grounds of heresy.nA Venus in armor, a heart made of musclenand with the sword of St. Michael, the olive branches rustle.nThen they wither and fade from the long warring dancenafter Joan earned the victory driving the English from France.nFe, fi, foe, fum...I smell the blood of an Englishman.nBe he alive or be he dead....I'll crush his bones to make my bread.nThe English were incensed, they made no amends.nJoan added injury to defeat, the English wanted their revenge.nThey said she was infernal, a consort of the devil.nThe inquisition was alerted of the maiden considered Satan's own rebel.nHer head was shorn of its hair, a skull on the makenfor after the trial she'd be burned at the stake.nIt's time to light the fire.nThe crowd assembled to watch her burning.nThey stood and watched with bitter yearning.nThe fire crackled her mortal shellnin a terrible coup between heaven and hell.nFlames of death all yellow and fiercenrising up towards heaven climbing up through her skirt.nThe crowd looked on at the maiden fairnas the fire licked onto her pubic hair.nShe steamed and she boiled and she prayed to her maker,ngrasping a burning cross to her breast as it baked her.nThere are onions in the field that make tears roll strongnbut the sight of Joan's unburned heart in the ashes convinced the inquisition their judgement was dead wrong.nThey had committed a crime, a sin without redemption. The judges could not hide. God's eyes stared down upon them and they all committed suicide.nJoan of Arc met a martyr's end.nShe took the blood of the Englishmen.nThey had captured her beloved France so she ran them away.nSo, for crushing their bones she was burned today.
