The witchfinder found




The crows will keep her company until her trial begins
The village wives all want her dead they won't forgive her sins
They keep her chained away from light and further from their men
This devil child has run them wild she won't go free again
Her dreadful deeds they document and plan how she will die
She charmed each man, and took his strength, she has the evil eye

The crows of course do not feel fear and neither does our maid
These foolish folk can't keep her here their acts will be repaid
For all around her sisters fly tonight the coven meets
The witchfinder, the coven's head, keeps mortals off the streets
His dreadful deeds they don't suspect no actual witch will die
He stalks the land, protects his flock, the apples of his eye

A cow runs dry, a horse goes lame, the fish won't rise for bait
He blames the old, the poor and weak, decides their gruesome fate
But gorgeous girls, with magic powers, and eyes to drown a heart
They're never blamed, just join his band, and there perfect their art
Their  dreadful deeds are all for him, he aims to never die
He weaves vile charms and speaks darks spells to find the devil's eye

This latest maid, has other aims, she is the whitest witch
Her two black crows are witches too their powers are old and rich
The witchfinder will end his reign condemned in wiccan courts
The new white Queen, has all the power, most witches don't have warts!
The dreadful deeds will be undone no innocents must die
Restore the land and make it whole protected by her eye!

  • (What have you got against consistent punctuation, bro?)

    Quite something you have built here - very vivid. I get the impression it poured out onto the page.

  • Wow, great tale you have woven. I know what you mean I could have made a real story out of it..with another 30 lines or so This is superb, a delight to read. All the best in the contest with it

  • A great stroy through a poem, it flowed well, it had some scariness, hauntingness and a great incorporation of the picture

    Thank you and good luck

    This is great! A fantasy in the dark genre! As usual your rhyme is fantastic but now I see you are a story teller as well. Bravo!

    Love,

    I had just as much fun reading it! Rolls off the tongue in a most lyrical way.
