Vixen

I'm setting a good example
of sympathy

to every witch burnt at the stake
in history


When I'm blue perhaps it's because

a sea horse just crumbled away
crackling

and if the swan's mood overtakes me

there'll be berserk, gore and violence

so beware inquisitors

I'm about to set an example 

of real cruelty

 

anger,

blessed you are among women

freckled heretic muse fallen into disgrace

you know well fire just blackens, no makes no one pure

come lick my wounds, heal my curse

mesmerize my indigo soul

I shall not survive my birthday

 

yes, there's a dormant phoenix in me

who's sick of the cycle of death and rebirth

I'd rather be in the womb of every greyness

where a nuclear winter radiates forever

'cause if everybody carries a cross

I carry the heaviest of the feathers

 

melancholy,

blessed you are among women

vixen Magdalene cast into oblivion

you know well fire just blackens, no makes no one pure

come lick my wounds, heal my curse

mesmerize my indigo soul

I shall not survive my birthday

 

hunt me, hunt me

unleash your stupid fears on me

burn me, burn me

I’m glad to be your so-called witch
