Tales From the Broom Closet
Poems, Songs and Stories by whispurr
Hello...my name is whispurr. I am a gay white male who currently resides in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and this is my new little corner of the cyber-universe. Back in the day, I had quite a presence on the internet with web page after web page full of all kinds of ridiculous things. These days I am a bit more subdued...but not dead.
Back then, I didn't really know who I was. Now, I pretty much know exactly who I am. I am a witch, a member of the pagan faith Wicca. Deep down, I guess, I always knew I was a witch, but I didn't really come out of the broom closet until like four years ago. And I have changed, my friends, all for the better.
The stories and poems from this web site come from before and after my transformation, but I think they all reflect a certain pagan sensibility. Some are very dark...some not so much. For better or for worse, all of them contain a certain magick and all of them provide an insight into just, exactly, who I am and how I tick.
I consider my psychic ability to be that of an empath. I can feel the feelings of those around me. I pick up very easily on people's vibrations and, most of the time, the things people are feeling are quite different from what they are saying. I don't read minds or anything like that. I just go by feelings. I can usually tell when someone is lying to me but I don't call them on it. That would be very rude.
This ability can be very painful at times and I think that it is the reason that I have led the life of a loner. I have a hard time getting close to people because I pick up on all their positive and negative feelings about me and this makes me very sensitive. Thus, I am fairly aloof in most circles.
It's only been recently, since I started fully exploring my Wiccan and Pagan faith, that I realized that I can learn to manage these feelings and I've started to make some very dear friends in Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas. Hence, I created this web site in hopes that my new and hopefully long-lasting friends might understand me better. I know I don't always say it, but I do cherish you all.
