Almost Over

Happy Halloween!

All Hallows Eve

HALLOWEEN

Here it is, finally. Halloween. All Hallows Eve. The Night of the Dead. To me, Samhain(Sow-an to you non-Pagan folk). 

I am so extremely excited!

So, this year has a little more meaning to me. It is my first Samhain as a Dedicant, or first level toward my, hopeful, witchery. Whoo!

I never really plan my rituals, but this year I'm doing a bit more planning than usual. I've decided to not do like I've done in past years: honour those innocents who were killed during witch trials. Now, I will say a few words, but, normally, I actually look up names and date. I think I am going to do a separate ritual for them the day of the end of the Salem Witch Trials, seeing as that was closest to me.

I'm debating on whether Samhain will be the mark of the new year for me, or Yule. I've used Samhain in the past, but I researched it and it goes by the Celtic year, which has only two seasons, while I have four. I don't know. I may stick with Samhain, just because it seems right.

YAY, HALLOWEEN!!!

Daughter of Superman

Don't follow me unless you're willling to run.
I'm not slowing down, not 'til I'm done.
Nothing can stop me or bring me down,
Not even you will make me frown.
So try if you want, but I doubt you can,
'Cause I'm the mother fuckin' daughter of Superman.

Not This Time

Why can't I stop this?

I have always run away.

I will not this time.

Signs

Nails are all down to nubs.

I pick and worry them down.

Stress is a monster.

Run Away!

My legs have grown strong.

Running is all I do now.

The voice is a lie.

Sonnet II "Hate"

Hate me.

Please do this.

Hate, I can handle.

Hate, I can trust. 

Hate is normal.

Hate is strong.

Hate is common.

It is safe.

Hate is just hate.

Hate breeds only itself.

Love breeds pain.

Love breeds torment.
