One persons definition of witchcraft - anytime we wish to impose our will over God’s will. Interesting...
RELIGIOSITY
she prefers magic,
a world of her own,
a twitching nose,
her fingers framing,
her up and down thumbs,
potions that make her will possible,
she believes in herself.
she finds a scrap of hair,
a bone,
a toenail and shakes
her lips in incantation
amidst a glorious fireflame of blue
rubs meaningful gemstones
between white witch fingers.
God sits on His throne,
shaking His head.
in His mercy
He holds back.
you wondered where He’s been -
why does He hide.
in His glorious light,
you must surely fall
to your knees and perish
for all eternity from His beautiful presence.
with longsuffering He waits
hoping you will change your mind.
you want to take.
He wants to give.
you want to hate.
He lives to love.
you want your way.
He is THE WAY.
