Panther

Black Magic Woman was tired and sick of the Dark Ages

Conferred with all sorts of Gods friends and medieval sages

I have to earn my stripes or let it be a multicoloured hide

Am a fierce cat woman with future and history in my stride


The panther was the favourite mount of ancient Dionysus 

Give me some weed for ecstasy theatre and psychokinesis 

I’ll rest in my cave for three days and prepare for my fight

Emit sweet smelling odour and lure a dragon at midnight


Clever sod thinks he is immune to pheromones and stench

But when he comes into my dungeon I’ll take my revenge

On injustices of religion myth legend and ancient belief

Devour the beast with my magical potion as an apéritive
