So I have really enjoyed sharing it feels good to be seen and viewed. These next two poems are more related to my childhood and my journey with gender and individuality. Dark seeds was an exploration of how I have recreated my childhood abuse within my adult relationships. It also explores the power of reframing some darker elements to be able to accept the past so that I can realize my full potential as an adult. I am re-mothering and re-fathering myself to give the younger aspects of me what they needed in my adolescence but doing so within my life as an adult.
The second poem is about my relationship with gender and magic. I grew up in a christian household so any mention of witchcraft was not a positive thing. This is me claiming that aspect of myself as well as my masculinity. It also explores how much magic has helped me and set me free from old patterns. It is a physical way to work through emotions and process, while I call in the positive aspects that I wish to cultivate in my life. It is also my rebel self taking charge with my desire to stop being a people pleaser and becoming more self assertive. The use of enya is in reference to the celtic word for fire not the artist. I hope you all enjoy

D a r k S e e d s
Planted in the child
Dark seeds
Abuse in full bloom
Flowering adult
Strip the leaves
Brew the flowers
Reintegrate the medicine
Take your power

V o i d
Im a witch bitch
Gender switch
I saged my cage
to spit fire rage
Black void Goddess
Scream to me
Bleed for me
Dark enya of my heart
Burning lips with soft hips
Sear my flesh so I may caress
And release my stress
Peeling anger from my body
I surrender to the void
