The Burning Times
Trials tortures executions
Fire gender extermination
Collective hysterics, crazes
Mass murder and panics
Witch â€" hunts resulted in trials and tortures and executions
Ill â€" fated heroines exterminated by the holy deadly institution
Mere victims of narrow-minded prejudice
And fanatical judgment (mass murder)
Scapegoats on which every imaginary blame can be laid
For male â€" dominated christian society
Women were anathematized and cast as witches
Because of enduring grotesque fears they generated
In respect of their presume abilities to control men
Witchcraft was one expression
of the constant effort of the race
To rid itself of the sick religion imposed on it
