"Ode to Artemisia: Magnificent Mugwort"
Music & Lyrics by Kathleen Cromwell
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Magnificent Mugwort
Like her namesake Artemis--Goddess of Beasts and Forest fame
Mugwort’s fertile, self-reliant, fierce and never will be tame
She is legendary, Number One of Nine Sacred Herbs
She spreads her lusty roots cunningly by roadsides, rivers, curbs
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Magnificent Mugwort
Her taste’s a little bit bitter; but she isn’t ever tart
She strengthens your blood, your gut, your brain, and your heart
Bathe in her smudge with/or smoke her drink her tea that you steep
Under your pillow she brings on vivid dreams while you sleep
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Magnificent Mugwort
She’s a shape-shifter, memory-keeper, you know it’s true
She’ll make a lucid-dreamer, First-Eye seer out of you
Magical healing powers are at her very core
She’s a wise ancient Elder we’re eternally grateful for
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Mighty Mugwort
Artemisia Vulgaris--Magnificent Mugwort

"Mad Rain"
Music by Spiros Soukis
Lyrics by Kathleen Cromwell
Mad rain is pounding down, the wind is howling
I’m waiting for salvation to arrive.
Don’t know what’s out there; darkness all around me.
Don’t know if I am dead or alive.
I hear the thunder & I see the lightning
Mad rain just keeps on coming down & down.
There’s not a thing that I can do to stop it.
I guess that I’ll eventually drown
The future’s looking just a bit uncertain.
Wonder if this mad rain will last for long.
Used to seem I knew all the right answers;
discovered that the questions were all wrong.
The water’s rising up fast all around me
As mad rain falls so slow & steadily
I suddenly see a boat off in the distance
I hope that it will come & rescue me
The future’s looking just a bit uncertain.
Wonder if this mad rain will last for long.
Used to seem I knew all the right answers;
discovered that the questions were all wrong.
