I was a lonely child. I am now and have always been a bit of a too-much person. I have big feelings, an abundance of natural energy, and I’m very smart. I also fall into the neurodiverse world when it comes to how my brain works. I have some sensory processing issues that can cause trouble if they get too close to the surface. I know now that some of the behaviors and lashing-out I experienced as a child were a response to hitting neurological overwhelm. It’s easy to analyze all of that n...| Glasse Witch Cottage

The women singers who open the song state that the one who possesses the witchcraft horn should be allowed to stay. But the chorus states to the contrary that the one who does not possess such a horn be allowed to stay. ...| African Poems
