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
