• Clonehenge

  Love this site. I realised to day that I have a submission for them, a replica Seahenge I came across walking along the beach of lake Okanagan, British Columbia (I should mention that this lake has a famous lake monster, the Ogopgo)
  It must have been made during Halloween/Samhain as I found it the day after.
  And I was walking with a real life Druid at the time!
  I hope they accept it.
  From Clonehenge:
  “This blog is meant to form a searchable list of [...]

• Rumi

  These spiritual window-shoppers,
  who idly ask, ‘How much is that?’ Oh, I’m just looking.
  They handle a hundred items and put them down,
  shadows with no capital.
  What is spent is love and two eyes wet with weeping.
  But these walk into a shop,
  and their whole lives pass suddenly in that moment,
  in that shop.
  Where did you go? “Nowhere.”
  What did you have to eat? “Nothing much.”
  Even if you don’t know what you want,
  buy something, to be part of the exchanging flow.
  Start a huge, foolish project,
  like Noah.
  It [...]

• The Song of Spells

  The Song of Spells

  145.
  Those songs I know, which nor sons of men
  nor queen in a king’s court knows;
  the first is Help which will bring thee help
  in all woes and in sorrow and strife.
  146.
  A second I know, which the son of men
  must sing, who would heal the sick.
  147.
  A third I know: if sore need should come
  of a spell to stay my foes;
  when I sing that song, which shall blunt their swords,
  nor their weapons nor staves can wound.
  148.
  A fourth I know: if [...]

• Dentists Can Be Witches

  Dentists Can Be Witches

  Oh Paganism
  Oh Witchcraft
  I love thee so
  Go mainstream dears
  And let the masses Know
  Let dentists be Witches
  Fight for freedom and equality
  And all that good stuff
  But oh
  My heart and soul
  Do not ever, never, no
  Oh Paganism
  Oh Witchcraft
  Become too mainstream
  Too good
  Too sweet
  Oh no
  Yes we must be family friendly
  And not scare the muggles too much
  But don’t be afraid to swear
  Or wear purple hair
  Or dress in renaissance clothes
  Just keep quiet about it
  When you dance nude in the woods
  Or sacrifice a toad
  Let our faith, our [...]

• I Buried Maia Today

  I buried Maia today. Maia was a 2 or 3-year-old black, white and brown beagle. Born into a puppy mill and kept there to become a momma, or breeder, she came to us obese, frightened, unsocialized and pregnant.
  Now folks, lets makes perfectly clear here, there are excellent dog breeders, dog breeders, irresponsible dog breeders (back yard breeders generally fall into this category), bad breeders, and then there are puppy mills.
  Puppy mills are to dog breeding as feedlots are to farming.
  Think [...]

• Sorry About That!

  I’m so tired I deleted two excellent comments rather than approve them! Sorry about that!
