Hedge Witch
Hedge Witch
Brewing tinctures
and salves
savoring the scent
ties me to sisters
way back herbalists,
wise women working
as solitaries feared
or respected depending
on locale and the times
Who knows if they’re true
I have flashes
of the burning times
devoted to my craft
sought after by the sick
hunted by the hidebound,
skin taut listening for danger
alive to the undertow



"...skin listening for danger..." A great line! And useful today, given our current"undertow."
Wicked good witchesWicked good witches
work words for good-will wishes.
Weapons for we-world.
