Charge
of the Beeotch
Listen to the words
of the Great Beeotch she who of old is known as Arwen, Inanna,
Jaz, Kriselda, Lynna, Raven, Suzi, and Wolfrose, and by many
other names, some best left censored:
Whenever you have
need of anything once in the month, and better it be when it is
not my moontime or any other time when I might be tired or
already irritable, then shall you gather and adore me, who am
Queen of all Bitches. There shall you gather, you who desire to
learn the true Art of Bitchcraft, yet have not honed it to razor
sharp precision; to these I will teach the esoterism of true
bitchiness. And you shall be free from fluff; and as a sign that
you are truly free, you shall cite tradition, correct
misconception, bad grammar, spelling errors, and demand proper
capitalization, and punctuation. For I am educated and can read
above third grade level. Keep pure your highest ideal; strive
ever towards it and if anyone tries to stop you, smack them hard
upside the head. For mine is the determination to succeed and
educate the ignorant.
I am the Queen
Mother Bitch, Who can give the Gift of Joy unto the heart of man
or woman if you have not seriously ticked me off. On Earth, I
give the Knowledge that to communicate effectively and honestly
is no crime; and beyond death, I give peace from the fools who
have annoyed you and freedom from those fools and reunion with
other great Bitches who have gone before you. And actually, I do
demand sacrifice, for behold; Putting up with these twits wears
on my nerves. I am the Bitch of All Living and My Ire is poured
out upon the Earth when I am grumpy.
Hear ye the Words
of the Star Goddess: She under Whose Feet all stupid people are
Dust, Whose Body encircleth the Universe especially when She is
bloated.
I, Who am the Bitch
Queen of the Earth and the Black Mood amongst the Stars, and the
Mystery of why idiots are not drowned in my Waters, and the
Desire of the heart of man to avoid Me when I get like this. I
call unto thy soul, all ye who would be Bitches: "Arise!
And come unto Me!"
For I am the Soul
of the Bitch, Who giveth Crap back to the Universe: from Me all
things proceed, and unto Me all things must return and if they
don't get here fast enough, I may hurt something. And before My
Face, which is bitchy and known to all gods and men, thine
innermost Bitch Self shall be enfolded in the Rapture of the
Infinite Bitch.
Let My Worship be
within the heart that tolerates no shit, for behold: all acts of
bitchiness and honesty are my rituals. And therefore let there
be bitching and strength, honesty and compassion, honor and
humor, mirth and reverence within you.
And thou who
thinkest to seek for Me, know thy seeking and yearning shall
avail thee not, unless thou knowest the Mystery: that if thou
are stupid who seekest Me, then thou shalt never find Me.
For behold, I have
been with thee from the beginning; and I am That which is
attained at the end of PMS.
