    (FB 1552611579 Timestamp) Crystal water turns to dark Where ere it’s presence leaves it’s mark And boiling currents pound like drums When something wicked this way comes… A presence dark invades the fair And gives the horses ample scare Chaos rains and panic fills the air When something wicked this way comes… Ill winds mark it’s fearsome flight, And autumn branches creak with fright. The landscape turns to ashen crumbs, When something wicked this way comes… Flowers bloom as black as night Removing color from your sight Nightmarish vines block your way Thorns reach out to catch their prey And by the pricking of your thumbs Realize that their poison numbs From frightful blooms, rank odors seep Bats & beasties fly & creep ‘Cross this evil land, ill winds blow Despite the darkness, mushrooms glow All will rot & decompose For something wicked this way grows…

    (FB 1552612197 Timestamp) Round about the cauldron go, In, the poisoned entrails throw. Toad, that under cold stone Days and nights has thirty-one Sweltered venom sleeping got, Boil thou first i’ th’ charmèd pot. Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake. Eye of newt and toe of frog, Wool of bat and tongue of dog, Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting, Lizard’s leg and owlet’s wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble. Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches’ mummy, maw and gulf Of the ravined salt-sea shark, Root of hemlock digged i’ th’ dark, Liver of blaspheming Jew, Gall of goat and slips of yew Slivered in the moon’s eclipse, Nose of Turk and Tartar’s lips, Finger of birth-strangled babe Ditch-delivered by a drab, Make the gruel thick and slab. Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron, For the ingredients of our cauldron. Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Cool it with a baboon’s blood, Then the charm is firm and good. Oh well done! I commend your pains, And every one shall share i’ th’ gains. And now about the cauldron sing, Like elves and fairies in a ring, Enchanting all that you put in. By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.

    (FB 1552742160 Timestamp) HEATHEN VS PAGAN DISAMBIGUATION —“Curt, do you see Heathen and Pagan as concurrent/overlapping or do you see one preceding the other? I thought the terms were synonyms.”—Alan Robbins ORDER IN TIME 1. Heathen (hearth / spirits / nature) 2. Pagan (family of gods / archetypes / society) 3. Christian (one god / ruler / monopoly / politics) 4. Science (man, heroes, universe, markets) DISAMBIGUATION The disambiguation between heathen and pagan is mine given the overlap. Pagan is a definite construction of the semitic era of organized religion. Heathen is a term that had no organized religious connotation.

    (FB 1552715755 Timestamp) Christianity has no weight outside of the scots irish south and a tiny bit of the german interior. The catholic church destroyed christianity by failing to reform. The evangelicals reformed protestantism, and they remain the only ‘christians’. The rest of us are portfolio practitioners with protestant christianity, nature worship, germanic fairy tales and myths, and science varying in influence upon us.
