I AM
I Am Pagan In the garden I grow A living tapestry Of the beliefs I sow High Priestess In my own time Balancing elements Prayers in rhyme I Am Goth In the moonlight I roam In starry cloaks The night is my home Stone Gargoyle Watching waiting Candlelight and velvet Stalking baiting I Am Gypsy By tribal rhythms I dance Swirling in veils Of a spiritual trance Enchantress True seer Into someone's fortune I sometimes peer I Am Wild Keeper of the free Untamed souls My furry clan and family The activist Exotics Healing the hurt and sick Domestics I Am Pirate In love with shiny things Romance of adventure The history it brings Sailing seas Sword fighting Collecting the treasures Land sighting And Victorian Curious about everything Superstitious and elegant Wit an educated sting Rococo Overdressed Both proper and naughty Image Obsessed I am many entities… Depending on the day Depending on my mood I can be no other way It is who I am |
