Tethered Spirit Unfurled - the Scarlett Witch, Wanda Maximoff
From ashes of Sokovia, a twin sister rose,
With powers of chaos and psionic flows,
Wanda they called her, tethered spirit unfurled,
As women before her, she reckoned this world.
Her pain born of loss, and hurt tragedy,
Fueled a hatred not native and made enemy,
Tony Stark, as she knew him, her symbol of ire,
Whose projected missiles did actions

Wanda and Rudolph
Your only four feet tall and you got a red nose taunts the scarlet witch
"But I have antlers strong & sturdy and I can outshine a blood moon anytime "
You can buck your horns but you can't deliver you silly caribou, she teases
"I am a legendary luminous being of light and I can

Wanda Woman
She takes her wand a sugar cane long
And waves it in the air singing a song
She likes to make her heroic cape
From collard green leaves that she crochet
She makes her brazier from coconuts
With licorice straps sticky to touch
Her bald head blessed with a crown
from grapevines with grapes hanging down
Her skin is thin from all the

Wanda Woman
No matter what’s in front of you
Wanda Woman is behind you
Wanda Woman!
No matter what’s behind you
Butterflies gonna pull for you!
She’s a dancer, cancer
Can’t kill her soul
She’s a winner, and in her
Is a heart of gold
She’s a mother, lover
A grand-mom too
She’s a tougher, warrior
Than the “x” you know who.
No matter what’s in front

So the lads will call her, "Hottie"
But out on a date
They all need to wait
Because she has to go potty!

For Wanda
For Wanda
Deep in the crannies and the nooks,
where no one goes and no one looks,
The whispers of a scattered mind,
call out to shadows left behind.
Like strobes, the memories flash and wane,
then wash away like April rain.
And thoughts that once were clear, refreshed,
sit trapped and tangled and enmeshed
in webs of darkened yesterdays,
with no tomorrows or todays.
Time

Wanda asked with eyes big and blue
Could it be I needed a screw?
With drinks on the table
I found she was able
To do what she wanted to do.

Teary Eyes Wanda
Wanda's eyes were teary
All day she felt that way
So badly she wanted to cry
The tears would not come
She did not know the reason why
When it was bed time
Upon her bed she laid
With her head upon the pillow
Laying awake for hours
Wondering why she felt this way
No answer came to her
Tossing and turning All through the evening
Until

Slowly day after day her mental status worsened and round

Portrait of Joe and Wanda
Written: March 8, 2012
Updated: August 15, 2012
Note: Sequel to An Evening at the Home
3:00 a.m. - There was a full moon, and all was well.
Restless, uneasy snoring in various pitches was the only music of the night.
Starched white uniforms did not dare wrinkle as the nurses moved from room to room.
Only the softest of tip-toeing

Wanda Wages War At the Waldorf
Wednesday, while waiting for the waiter, wanting some waffles at the Waldorf,
a woeful, wimpy, wall-eyed Walter,
witnessed a wicked, wanton woman (who was wearing a wacky wardrobe and
wiggling her whoppers)
waddle in walking with her Welch terrior
winking, wooing with wily ways,
wanting to weaken Walter’s willpower. Willing,.. Walter whistled
as wife, Wanda, walked in. Well,
