I am an angry goddess walking I am Kali-ma of Destruction Sehkmet the Lioness Cerridwen the Death-Hog You do well to remain meek-- you are beneath me I am no suckling kitten curled around myself inside I am the essence of the storm the howling wind you cannot put a name to I am inside your darkest, quivering, humiliating terror I am outside catalyzing that which makes you quake If you present me my proper respect (and that is great) I shall spare you. If not-- I shall turn my back on you-- and may dishonor take you wherever death may leave you. [This message has been edited by Portia (edited 07-21-2000).] |

Intense stuff, really enjoyed the poem. Remind me not to make you angry. why must we pray screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith |

Very powerful. Reminds me of a harsher "I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar". |
