She's A Witch
For Belle's "Le Dรฉfenseur!" Challenge
Introduction
This is for Belle's "Le Dรฉfenseur!" Challenge, which you can read all about here:
I have decided to do this as a closing statement as a free-form poem.
The music is Donovan Leitch's "Season of the Witch" performed by Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & The Trinity
She's A Witch
๐๐๐ธ๏ธ๐ท๏ธ๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน๐ท๏ธ๐ธ๏ธ๐๐
This is my closing statement:
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
My Client Is Accused Of Being A Witch.
Of That There Is No Doubt.
The Prosecution Contends That She Is Evil
What The Hell Is That About?
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
She Has A Black Cat, And A Besom Broom
And Her Witches' Cauldron That Is True
But Tell Me You Small-Minded Prosecutor
How The Hell Does That Hurt You?
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
She Casts Her Spells And Brews Her Potions
To Help The People of This Town
And Here You Are Wasting Our Time
Trying To Drag Her Down
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
Not One Fact Have You Given To Support Your Case
But You Have to Make This Prosecution Stick
So You Don't Lose Face
Your Actions Here Show You To Be Truly Thick
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
So to Hurt This Fine Lady
You Have Tried To Do Your Worst
If She Really Was Evil
She Would Have Hit You With A Curse
๐งน๐งโโ๏ธ๐งน
She Is A Witch, But All Love Her, Except You
So She Must Go Free, Without Further Ado

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

Okay, for one -- song, brilliantly chosen. Second, incredible take! I loved the creative method you went with this, and how artful your diction is. And of course, the presentation? Quite aesthetically pleasing. Thank you so much for entering, Mike! The results should be posted later today!
Well & lyrically argued.
Very nice, Mike. I really liked it.
You got this exactly right. Good job.
Good witches should be free
There are a lot of good witches out there. ๐๐ฎ
But how nice this is! We all love a good witch.
