Spooky Bitch

[anirbas]

She's a guaranteed spooky bitch
A bona fide natural hedge witch
Doesn't have the patience or time
For what other humans hold sublime

Busy gathering her roses bleeding
from the scratches of many thorns
Skips about nude in the moonlight
Dances naked in lightning storms

She knows a perfect stitch saves nine
Peers into your palm reads your life line
Owns more than one cauldron mortar and pestle
Read your tarot cards if you have the meddle

She'll sell you whatever you request or wish
A love potion a green spell a curse or blessed be
Mixes beauty lotions and healing tonics
Shrink your hemorrhoids with an ointment

Surrounded by more than one familiar
All black cats they look quite similar
She cures what ails you with a poultice
Suggest chrysanthemum hair rinse for lice

Busy gathering her roses bleeding
from the scratches of many thorns
Skips about nude in the moonlight
Dances naked in lightning storms

She's a guaranteed spooky bitch
A bona fide natural hedge witch
Doesn't have the patience or time
For what other humans hold sublime

There is a lot to be commended in the old ways. Sometimes loved and feared in equal measure. The supernatural in many ways more common sense a lot of the time. And a knowledge of the world around us that puts most of us to shame.

A fine well written piece anirbas. I loved it!
