by Lauren Wallett
I’m a witch, bitch
I got magic in my eyes
I see you twitch, miss?
Are you dazzled by disguise?
Nothing to fear, dear
You’re just taken, by surprise
No pointy hat; cat
I got bunnies by my side
No crooked broom, gloom
It’s pretty pink where I reside.
But I cast spells, child
Cast them close and cast them wide
It’s to attract, that
Which I feel so deep inside:
See I manifest totality
To improve upon humanity
Make true a new reality
Hear the world as I describe:
It’s time for witch, bitch
No more hiding, no more lies
Watch me shape, shift
Out the closet, into pride
Come out and play, slay
Dragons fall and dragons rise.
The only glitch, miss
Is not to listen, not to try
There’s a new way, say
Revealing starts and its today
Step up a gear, dear
Transcend space and time
Now:
Love is my potion
Acceptance, the notion
Forgiveness sets the motion
Yes, I’m causing a commotion!
Shake it up; mind my stride
I’ll stir the pot, dot:
Doing one thing at a time
See the smoke, miss?
It speaks of fire, deep inside
There’s witch in you, too
You intuit that it’s true
Let it out, dear
No meek and mild, child
Chant these words and we’ll abide
The spell that won’t be broken
Is in giving, hearts the token
List the possibilities
Majority, minorities
Hope’s our commonality,
Differs madness from sanity
It connects us true, repeats anew.
It lives within me as it lives within you.
And while some think it may be strange,
There’s nothing scary about change
What’s ‘Witch’ at best? Test:
Internal magic, made manifest.
