She knows not what the curse may be,

And so she posteth steadily:

A pie, a prayer, a recipe—

Her life arranged aesthetically.

And little other care hath she

In giving up her liberty.

I love it.

Nice start, clear-eyed, no pity

Soon to arise as something Wit-ty?

Loved your poem. Especially being made a thing without a mind. Thanks for sharing.
