The
White Witch
James Weldon Johnson - 1871-1938
O brothers
mine, take care! Take care!
The great
white witch rides out to-night.
Trust not
your prowess nor your strength,
Your only
safety lies in flight;
For in her
glance there is a snare,
And in her
smile there is a blight.
The great
white witch you have not seen?
Then,
younger brothers mine, forsooth,
Like
nursery children you have looked
For ancient
hag and snaggle-tooth;
But no, not
so; the witch appears
In all the
glowing charms of youth.
Her lips
are like carnations, red,
Her face
like new-born lilies, fair,
Her eyes
like ocean waters, blue,
She moves
with subtle grace and air,
And all
about her head there floats
The golden
glory of her hair.
But though
she always thus appears
In form of
youth and mood of mirth,
Unnumbered
centuries are hers,
The infant
planets saw her birth;
The child
of throbbing Life is she,
Twin sister
to the greedy earth.
And back
behind those smiling lips,
And down
within those laughing eyes,
And
underneath the soft caress
Of hand and
voice and purring sighs,
The shadow
of the panther lurks,
The spirit
of the vampire lies.
For I have
seen the great white witch,
And she has
led me to her lair,
And I have
kissed her red, red lips
And cruel
face so white and fair;
Around me
she has twined her arms,
And bound
me with her yellow hair.
I felt
those red lips burn and sear
My body
like a living coal;
Obeyed the
power of those eyes
As the
needle trembles to the pole;
And did not
care although I felt
The
strength go ebbing from my soul.
Oh! she has
seen your strong young limbs,
And heard
your laughter loud and gay,
And in your
voices she has caught
The echo of
a far-off day,
When man
was closer to the earth;
And she has
marked you for her prey.
She feels
the old Antaean strength
In you, the
great dynamic beat
Of primal
passions, and she sees
In you the
last besieged retreat
Of love
relentless, lusty, fierce,
Love
pain-ecstatic, cruel-sweet.
O, brothers
mine, take care! Take care!
The great
white witch rides out to-night.
O, younger
brothers mine, beware!
Look not
upon her beauty bright;
For in her
glance there is a snare,
And in her
smile there is a blight.

In one small rural town the sheriff also fulfilled the role of the town's veterinarian. One night the phone rang, and his wife answered.
An agitated voice inquired, "Is your husband there?"
"He is, but tell me, do you need him as the sheriff or the vet?" the wife asked.
"Both!" was the reply. "We can't get our dog's mouth open, and there's a burglar in it!"
