The Crone (Song)

Candid Corvid Productions

By Athena Stairs, December 14, 2025 (Early AM)

Why would you desire to
Entwine your life with mine
As my age farther advances?

Look at me – I am branded a freak
For daring to love beyond boundaries
Their voices sound like a hound bays

Women are told they are worthless
So men can accumulate purchase
As corrupt our beautiful mystery

So tell me why you’d want me
Words restore faith in humanity
When a Man has courage’s honesty

Icy winds howling, swirling Elden tones

No More Losses

Candid Corvid Productions

I can’t afford effects of the ride by
Taking drugs, drinks, or medication

That would cause any imbalance in
How I manage emotional currents

Because I am still captaining my ship
With people dependent upon strength

If I break down during financial hardships
The wreckage would become unavoidable

So therefore I do not have the ‘luxury’ of
Being someone who has ‘medical needs’

Altered States

Drug Abuse

Candid Corvid Productions

She had wanted to crash under my wing
Seeing how I fought for my own family

But she was hard into drugs and alcohol
Already with a DUI knocking on my door

We were sandwiched between addicts
And she held power over our housing

I needed to keep her out of our haven
Because she was in destructive chaos

I chose to assert my boundaries but
Helped her with parole and probation

Encouraged her through rehabilitation
But she wanted me involved in legality

I refused because of the implied liability
Her neglectful family could turn on me

So she turned to her controlling friends
Taking harder drugs so that she’d fit in

I’d a sense she was heading directions
I could not control despite hard trying

I wasn’t surprised when she turned on me
Just confirmed I’d been right in my clarity

Because I needed my sight to navigate
The quagmire she’d created as we fled

Off The Table

“The PA told me that basic concussions easily take  4-6 weeks for recovery, but can take much longer if more severe – especially if compounding prior brain injury.

Looks like I am in the latter category, as school and extra pursuits are no longer an option at present.”
