Witch

Witch

 

I dug for the bones

And boiled em up with herbs

And said the proper words

Till the ghost came flitting,

Loose jointed, weak:

I showed him I meant business.

You fetchee and you carry

I said to him with signs.

 

Go to my Lord

Let him not lie easy

Go to my Lady

Poison all she eats

Let the flesh fall from her

Let her daily weaken

Let her lose her baby- and

Be frighted by her glass.

 

No harm, no harm

It’s only crazy Mary

Who lives among the ruins

And was pretty once,

Who buried her poor baby.

Alms pretty lady

(Or you know what might occur)

All for sweet Jesu’s sake.

The problem with that memories tag is it takes some finding. I have to go to your profile then click on the little heart, which has no description of what it is. I thought of a couple of workarounds, in case you're interested- both demonstrated on my old LJ, but both would require you change theme to one with 2 or 3 columns.

1- on the top right you've got your POEMS section, renamed from TAGS. Under this will go a list of all the tagged poems you've got. So you could tag them like you have in your memorable entries, but that would take some work.

2- probably the easier option- add some links to your sidebar, like i have on the left side. At the bottom is a direct link to your poems page. This way people can one click their way to a clearly identified poems section. Also you could put people like me and Al on your 'blogroll' and pimp us to the world regularly- like I've done with your page ;).

I'm a little nervous about altering web pages- because I don't really know how- but I'll look into it.

Thanks for the suggestions.
