Once
it Begins
Juleigh
Howard-Hobson
Once it begins it
will not stop. Beware
of what that
means. A curse commenced won’t care
that you might
undergo a change of heart.
Magick in motion
stays in motion, start
to end, until its
done. There is nowhere
else for it to go,
excepting for there,
where you sent it.
Accordingly prepare.
Even a witch can’t
pull a curse apart
once it begins,
let alone you.
You’re better off with swear
words than real
hexes. Say an angry prayer
if you must, that
might be best, would be smart,
because if you
begin to bend dark art
to your banal
will, it will not stop there
once it begins.
