Andy's Spell
Letter from Andy, delivered to the Gatekeepers on our 3rd day of camp.
(It was handwritten, so I will do my best to honor the format.)
To Free Activist Witchcamp
Three times I have come to you.
Three times I have asked:
“Is there no room for me at the table?”
Three times I have been denied.
So be it!
I cut you from the web
of the magic I have woven.
I stand on the border,
for that is where the change happens,
And I sever my ties with you.
You no longer walk the Coyote Road!
The Wild is not your home!
Stay on your little farm, it suits you…
I wash my hands of you.
You should change the name,
Weave your own magic,
Lest you invoke me
Every time you utter the words:
Free Activist Witchcamp!
