September Poetry Prompt: 9/3

Among all the chaos between day to day changes misgivings misfortunes-- it was you. Watching this woman read a suspense novel on the patio translucent fingers turning yellow pages eyes scanning down lines behind perched edge-nosed glasses her bliss-- her contentment. Then you . You crossed my mind when all I saw was her its all you did same small, influential, indescribable action of losing yourself among pages of a world that's better than this one-- and you did. You moved from independence and fluid motions to the most fragile state of eating inabilities and tense throat ventilation screenings. You escaped in all forms of the action-- from today's world, trauma, discrepancies, tortures. And I'll stay here with her . Gaze at her  wonder, to embrace her and you . -fragile state

  A historical record of witchcraft and it's survival over the centuries! Louisa Morgan's,  A Secret History of Witches , is a five-part novel circled around the Orchi ére female line--mothers and daughters who partake in the craft. The novel begins in 1821, where the matriarch of the  Orchi ére line seals her familial line's fate by using her powers in order to ensure their survival against those who persecuted their kind.  A  vision emerges for her family to travel to a farm at a new location and  begin anew, putting aside  what   they've come to know in order to survive in a world where standing out means burning at the  stake. The story line travels through five different generations of  Orchi ére women, mothers passed knowledge down to their daughters, in some ways more constructive than others.

The first weekend of August happened to be the first and second day of the month. It was filled with heartbreak, aspirations, decisions, and hope. Tomorrow is Monday. The beginning of a new week in which the heartbreak will proceed with a decision that was guided by aspirations which will procure hope. Hope . Hope that things will be better in foreign territory. Hope that a change of scenery will cause an uplift in thoughts and emotions. Hope that what does stay the same could be looked at differently. There's that wedding saying, and believe you me there aren't an matrimony bells ringing yet, but there is a bond breaking, changing, molding, forming. Something old, Something new, Something borrowed, and Something blue . Something old - current scenery, Something new - a destination, Something borrowed - a dash of hope, Something blue - a new view of the sky as a paralleled figure. Maybe this first week of August wi...
