About Me

MagickalPoet.com

When I'm not working in a fragrance lab, I spend my time and energy either writing poetry (ShadowPoets: Devyn) listening to music, reading, watching movies, or working on product, web content/design, or putting together and teaching classes for a business I started with a friend (Everything Akasha) In the spring and summer I vend and/or kavort around local renaissance faires.

My First Book of Poetry - Now available!

"I ask for so little. Just let Me rule you and you can have everything that you want. Just fear Me, love Me, do as I say, and I will be your slave."

"One woman is fair, yet I am well;
another is wise, yet I amwell;
another virtuous, yet I am well;
but till all graces be in one woman,
one woman shall not come in my grace.
Rich she shall be, that's certain; wise,
or I'll none; virtuous, or I'll never cheapen her;
fair, or I'll never look on her;
mild, or come not near me;
noble, or not I for an angel;
of good discourse, an excellent musician,
and her hair shall be of what colour it please God"
