Magic is my backbone. 

It clings to my spine

and I am stable. 

Magic is my tongue.

Words sprout against others cheeks

or wilt and fall to the ground. 

Magic is my hands.

I reach out and take

I open and give. 

Magic is my feet

leading me to what will bring me what I need.

It shows me new places and people. 

Magic is me and I am magic. 

I sit in autumn. 

I feel my energies rise in a clever and fickle touch.

A curse is in my lungs like ammunition

and I put my plants to sleep.

Winter enraptures me in a cloak of distance and clarity. 

I craft a sword 

to fight lying angels. 

I bottle up the gravitating darkness within. 

Spring surprises me.

Despair melts into a puddle I gaze within

to see hope.

I put a glamour on my tongue.

It is a wish, a whisper of life. 

I find my feet in summer.

It grabs me and begs of me 

to notice the sun when summer is gone.

I prick my finger and bleed into it’s hot palm. 

I promise to try.

Put whatever you have from this list in a sachet or jar.  You can cover the jar in the wax of a green candle or just watch one burn. After it dries, shake it while listening to Kesha and realize that you can come out the other side of your pain like she has. 

Shake when needed. 

On hate, curses, and growth

I was SO full of hate. I had, and still have, every right to be.Hate is full and warm, it holds your hand through the fire. I cursed the president, I cursed my rapists. It was for justice, activism, and stability. 

I wavered on cursing my father, in case my loving dad was in there somewhere. Foolish. He then cut me out of his life for speaking my truth.  

I tried to come up with a fitting final blow when it occured to me. Hate wasn’t the strongest thing in my life anymore. My poetry had stopped being about the pain he caused me anymore.  

I talked of gardens, of oceans and laughter. Hate had gotten me through so much, but I felt I had gotten to a point in my journey that I no longer needed it. 

Hate leaves me torn open like a fleeing friend. I don’t curse my father. 

I write out spells to help me and others, instead. 

If you have gone through anything and would like to talk, I am here. I can help with curses, I can help with spells, I can help with advice. 

Much love.Â
