Witch Poem
Some say,
It's the season of the witch.
Broomstick mounted, a scream streaks the sky.
Croaking out spells as she passes by.
And townsfolk shiver and twitch
As they imagine how
The hag bids imps to fulfill her wish.
It's the season of the witch.
Broomstick mounted, a scream streaks the sky.
Croaking out spells as she passes by.
And townsfolk shiver and twitch
As they imagine how
The hag bids imps to fulfill her wish.
How did a woman become so hated
For knowing midwifery and herbal lore?
A cow tips over dead and it's devil's work.
But when a babe is about to be born
You find you need her once more.
Did she deserve the hate, the flame, the ash?
Or did ignorant minds, filled with superstition
Stoke hot accusations and damning fires,
Scrawling a legacy of hate through the ages,
A history inked in blood
And sorrow of womanhood.
