... Read moreIn this exploration of September Love, we delve into the intricacies of self-control and emotional expression that resonate deeply with many women. Poetry has always been a powerful medium for conveying complex feelings and experiences. The lines from the OCR resonate with struggles that numerous women face in articulating their inner turmoil while managing external perceptions. The notion of lowering one's voice, already familiar to countless women, emphasizes the societal pressures that often dictate how one should communicate. In the realm of poetry, this vulnerability becomes a strength, allowing for a visceral connection with readers who find comfort in shared experiences. Moreover, the importance of time – learning to bide your time – emerges as a recurring theme in the journey of womanhood, highlighting patience in personal growth and expression. As part of the #poetry community, engaging with other voices enhances our understanding of these themes, providing a support system for those navigating similar challenges. Join us in celebrating poetry as a reflection of life’s emotions and experiences.

A black and white dog is partially visible next to a collection of Amanda Lovelace's poetry books, such as "the witch doesn't burn in this one" and "unlock your storybook heart." The text emphasizes the author's identity as a witch.
A stack of Amanda Lovelace's poetry books, including "to make monsters out of girls," "the witch doesn't burn in this one," and "flower crowns & fearsome things," are neatly arranged, showcasing their spines.
Poetry and Witchcraft
Amanda Lovelace has been my favorite poet author for years. Finding out she is actually a witch was INCREDIBLE. I’ve also recently acquired her witchcraft book, which I’ll share my review on later. But as for witchcraft and poetry, I’m a strong believer that they may go hand and hand at times.
