Spellbinding
If she weaves words that are true enough
Strong enough
They will call it
a curse
She will be
a witch
And what can survive the flames?

to me this poem represents the intimation of an authenticity that is transcendent,which is so true to itself that it becomes a threat to others. Viewed suspiciously and in turn becomes evil in the the eyes of others and then the flame come! Nice work to juxtapose these forces in brevity!
Beautiful. Perfect. Succinct. Strong women, smart women, powerful women....
Powerful, true. Keep letting that voice sing.
Words wove and haunting.*
Well done.
