putting
                  all
                                      to
            sleep

sheep
                    numb
                                         selves
      by           cold            fire
shepherds
                                   herd
          to         death

empty                  eggs
         hatch
                    nothingness
     wool        gives
          no      warmth
   winter                 always
          never               Christmas
spring             will               never
                      come
white            witch            works
           her         magic
                    sleep       for
                                          peace
                    stone        for
                                          freedom

for              whom
                           sheep   follow
                 no   doubt
                           no   inquiry
             learned        lessons
                      well
indiscrimination             numbness
        satisfied
                                 mediocrity
