A succinct, though vaguely fuzzy, definition of one who is a witch
She operates with her spirituality through the application of magical techniques
(Apologies for the gendered use of "She*")

Rewarded More?
Atheists always preach about
how it should be about good works,
but I disagree-
the good folks have it easier than the mean;
they ain't tormented every damn day
to the point where they feel they have nothing to offer or say.
I'm not even on a Christian mission,
just trying to say something different.
I don't please the freaks,
just the ones who still have some humanity left,
something I've kept for long enough.
So, why they should be rewarded more?
The ones who weren't taught to be mean?
The one who don't go...

ascension (rewritten
Ascension
I walked on the vast plateau the everlasting wind of time
had blown away, the sand exposed millions of skeletons
and the memory of man wench the brain was walnut-sized.
The brain is larger now, filled with images of pornography
and wars on many fronts.
I came to an oasis I must drink or explode into atoms
but the water was full of coagulated blood.
I walked on crushing rib cages gleaming in the moonlight.
A vast iceberg blocked my way, sparkled like a diamond
decorated with religious promises of salvation.
I had to climb...

Casting Pearls Before Swine
Dreadful ones who got the pardon slithering in dark makeshift hot worlds
Bedazzling alibis summonses in belief to snare empresses to fizzle out the unfurl
Deceit plays in the tinier of the ill begot
Reign as sovereign of the blackness below lessened unto evil spirit as thots
In your dreams, your mind, your book of revelations keeps running to the light when hell is getting too hot
High above the blowing breeze I give the meaning to life to petals embedded, stems to sow
Will always...
Bedazzling alibis summonses in belief to snare empresses to fizzle out the unfurl
Deceit plays in the tinier of the ill begot

High above the blowing breeze I give the meaning to life to petals embedded, stems to sow
Will always...

Something Precious and Priceless
How can you know me?
When you are yet to know yourself.
How can you meet me?
When you are far from yourself.
How can you hear from me?
When you are deaf to yourself.
How can you see me?
When you are blind.
How can you speak to me?
When you are dumb.
Seeing my mortal self
You think you know me:
Dissecting
Analyzing....
And assuming.
I am more than the masquerade
You see standing before you
Speaking and listening to you;
I am more than the mask
Smiling and laughing with you.
I am...
When you are yet to know yourself.
How can you meet me?
When you are far from yourself.
How can you hear from me?
When you are deaf to yourself.
How can you see me?
When you are blind.
How can you speak to me?
When you are dumb.
Seeing my mortal self
You think you know me:
Dissecting
Analyzing....
And assuming.
I am more than the masquerade
You see standing before you
Speaking and listening to you;
I am more than the mask
Smiling and laughing with you.
I am...

Ha! Ha! Ha!
Professors taught us that the earth and physical life came from a big bang.
Frankly, the only thing that comes from a big explosion is destruction.
Archaeologists said that mankind evolved from monkeys over a long period.
There is not a shred of evidence to confirm this ridiculous and absurd theory.
Historians told us that dinosaurs roamed the earth millions of years ago.
And they deceived some people with the skeletal fossils that they sculpted.
Scientists with bad intent have tried in vain to find out the secret of life.
They can...

The Whips Of Stigmata
I am the wind beneath blowing at Hell’s feet
When Demons come to the roundtable to greet
My sword’s tip ingrained in the wood
No permission granted in earthly rest until the understating of man’s devious plight is understood
Spells I ordained, your souls blended to entertain
Who dare deny the force of the afterlife, when it resides in me
The spiritual prodigy born with a discerning third eye
My heart, mind, soul manifested to obey unto man’s purgatory just to appease
Can bridge one moment to the next...

The spiritual prodigy born with a discerning third eye

[ Short Shorts ] It never fails
Everytime someone erases
what you've said and puts
words in your mouth instead
a devil gets its wings
what you've said and puts
words in your mouth instead
a devil gets its wings

the gun point of convention
while the philosopher fared poorly against
the red-knuckled pugilist
and the doctor fared worse against
the headless corpse
the incredulity of thomas was easily assuaged with a bedside story
and a jumbo jet
until the under-bed monsters began scratching and the puzzled planes dismembered guests
were never found in the pacific
and the up down rhetoric of money
proclaimed the murderers as the victims
thus requiring a few more stints in the
flight simulator to ennoble...

Chaos (Tears Of Society)
Millennium ideas of falsehood to give sense to debauchery in whose sacred name
The signed Constitution of course tells me my presence in society has already been maimed
I am the effect of systematically drugs flushed in my communities, the poster child for the dope game
You are not the people, and neither am I as we chat peaceful needs to the Heavenly skies
Lift the blinders and open your third eye
Can’t you not see the horses in the race is not worn by hues such as you or me
Humanity thrives on red and blue tug of war, foreign...

The Universe
I think God was attending
A wonderful wedding ceremony
Between two very lovely angels.
She was so overjoyed, She threw handfuls
Of multicolored confettis around
And thus the Universe was formed.
