stirring caldrons brew in black dresses

John, I never even thought of that aspect of it Still the witches concoction brews in modern sterilized rooms. And because it is done in modern rooms...ergo modern is medical and good and all that. Very interesting point. Not too many people have the courage to talk about this you know. It is just not popular to go against the well traveled road...but maybe you know that already. God bless you for this insightful poem. Robert
