For the witch of winter, the one who feel the patterns of frost upon her skin as secret language, the one whose blood-red bag is like robin breast in the forest, she is a dealer in wonders. – John Arthur Haverbrook, 1827 #WitchWednesday https://t.co/NmhcpYDGvO

@oldweirdalbion I remember being taken to see the Romanichal places of Mistley as a child and the spots of his alleged murder and drowning. Little shrines of spat nails at both.

We walked through a landscape brutalised by winter, a landscape of trees made into the scratch of spectre nets against grey skys. We followed The Hum and told ourselves it kept our bones warm. – Soul Camouflage Katie, former Pylon Person, 1982 https://t.co/tYfdxaEaeu
