Witch 

 Embracing the Elements
 Standing on a cliff,
 At the edge of the sea.
 The wind howls,
 Lightning sears the air,
 Waves crash against the rocks,
 Torrents of rain pour down.
 I do not fear the fury of the elements
 I embrace them
 And gloriously surrender
 
 Awakened and thrilled by the gale winds about me
 A power fills circles and imbues
 My chakras open, my mind is clear
 I hear the ageless voices whispering their wisdom
 I am inspired
 I breathe, I envision, I am enlightened
 I am the air........
 
 Lightning flashes all around me.
 I am blinded, yet I see the truth.
 The Sacred Fire of Life ignites within me,
 A gift from the Lady and the Lord.
 A higher passion, a higher calling consumes me
 I am engulfed, transformed, and reborn.
 Waves crash over me,
 I am swept away.
 Pulled to the floor of the sea,
 From the waters of the Gaian womb was I born.
 Her tides ebb and rage through my veins,
 Through my whole, timeless being
 I am submerged, drowned, refreshed.
 I am the Water.
 
 I am crushed to the rocks, by the rocks.
 Buried beneath the earth,
 I feel the totality of existence
 Overwhelmed by the ageless wisdom,
 The patience and longing.
 I am twisted, cracked, transforming, rejuvenated
 I am the Earth.
 
 I lay down my body in surrender to the elementals.
 Yet I conquer
 I arise victorius, both stronger and wiser than before
 My spirit soars, I am a raw force of nature,
 Wielding the power of the elements
 Energized by a mystical, sensual beauty
 I am the Universe.
 I am magical, I am a witch
 Find  me...........

introducing Inclination, 


I share a closet with the sister moon
She graces me with her clothing
I am of the earth, I help things grow
I am the eye of a little god
I am most visible after the rain, I was born old.
I grow from the fertile soil, I have earthen hair.
I dream with many......
I am known to the shadows as Priestess.
I am never what I seem.
I am not cruel, only truthful
Music is always playing around me.
The petty world has long since been left behind 

Eliza is dead,
Think of her as a figment, a shadow
A red inclination is all that is left
I was but an apparition
So I leave behind but a shadow
My tears shed from within the mist
Falling from the mechanical structure which I must befriend
Into hands which shall grant me peace
I leave behind my image, to become......

I am going to burn  down the world,
tear everything down that cannot stand alone. 
I am going to reduce everything that stands to rubble,
then I will burn the rubble and scatter the ashes. 
Then and only then will they see things 'as they really are'

man made slave. Walk not these paths that sadness paved "

Goddess Turned Mortal- She wished she could ignore what sadness was,
And what stars can see, from so high above.....
could forget where gods slept and why mothers wept.

Woe to thee who wanders too close to my cave
Who dares to awaken me from my long sleep
with their incessant clamorings of western civilization !

Heed the wrath of the pacifist flower
Woven in coiled silence to a higher power
Away!......
