I recently released a book of poetry on October 31, 2021 on All Hallows Eve. It is available currently in paperback form on Amazon. I have had pretty good success marketing through social media, Facebook. Instagram and TikTok.
I was wondering if there was any place that you would know of that would be interested in carrying a book of poetry entirely based on Witchcraft, pagan gods, society and it’s views of practitioners as well as women an Mother Gaia throughout time….
Today is the celebration of my second printing, as I have added to the original creating a “Deluxe” edition, which is Now bigger and better
Any suggestions or offers to bring exposure to these writings would be greatly appreciated. Written through muse and inspired by akashik records I truly feel that it has a history and new voice that should be shared among practitioners and gentiles alike.
Thank you,

READY YOURSELF FOR A BLAST OF A GOOD READ. LOCK UP YOUR LOVED ONES AND TAKE A GREAT RIDE.
A Review of Something Witchy This Way Comes~
Poetry by Matthew Bowers
Reviewer Keith Suddrey
Not just something, but a whole pantheon of archetypes from the depths of our collective consciousness and that dark, deep subconscious, that drives the narrative from which we draw magic, story and populate the cosmos with ancient gods, goddesses, angels, demons, witches and their familiars. Mathew takes our imagination on a rollercoaster ride of a journey, through realms strewed with dark and light, with his undoubted and undaunted deep knowledge and understanding for his subject. Be entertained as you explore these poems, each adding more to your nous as you delve into all the wondrous aspects and guises of the Earth Mother, whether in the form of Gaia, women, crone, Hekate, both good and evil in one, who comes to us out of deep time and mesmerizes, is in an alchemy of the poets language.The list of characters that walk on to the stage is comprehensive in its panoply. You start your journey with an introduction to the daughter of the Egyptian sun god Re’s daughter, Bastet, lioness and cat. Ravens make their first appearance and will sow the fabric of these tales together, as you delve deeper into these ancient myths, folklore and spells. Meet Aiwass the demon that dictated, The Book Of The Law, Liber Legis, to Aleister Crowley. You travel on coming across more and more tribal gods, Ra, Osiris, Horus, Yahweh, angels and ancient spirits. You will experience transformation and metamorphosis, step into a long winter, gain understanding of how our matriarchal roots were subjugated by the patriarchal world of today.
Fall down, down, down that rabbit hole, a fellow traveller, but beware, there is a price for knowledge. When you look up at the moon, you will carry, mother moon (a most ancient god) the white goddess, Diana (leader of the hunt, with her male counterpart, the also horned, Hern the hunter). Three numbers reign supreme throughout this volume, 93, 72 (which is 6 dozen or half a gross) and 3. You get Hekate, who is part of a group of three, this is reminiscent of Celtic myth, especially the Morrigan, goddess of death and battle in Irish myth, who took the form with her two sisters of a crow or raven and has echoes in the three witches, in MacBeth. This trinity was purloined by Christians for their patriarchal religion.
You then read, Dark Poetry, which mixes magic from every point of the compass, woven together with the skill of the alchemist. Then touch the sky like a gypsy moth and know that although hallowed trees have fallen to dust, the gods are coming back one day. There are echoes of Peter Pan, the synchronicity of Do You Believe In Magic. Rocket Man, digs up my memories of Elton John, Dan Dare and Flash Gordon. Goddess Blue gave me the lady of the lake in Arthurian legends. The monstrous serpent Ouroboros, one of the three children of the Norse god Loki, that trickster, shapeshifter and bringer of Ragnarok, shifts it’s gigantic form into our path as we enter The Forest, primeval, deep time,ancient beyond imagining, where a sleeping king, is buried in his round barrow and Robin of the deep woods slinks into the undergrowth.
We learn how old gods and spirits have been transformed into saints, to try and make them more palatable. My favourite piece amongst this dragons hoard of gems, is Lunatic Cringe, which from the play on words in the title, ravens, Lewis Carroll’s Hatter, 3 sisters taking me to ole Shaky, then the Devine Comody and the icing on the cake, hitting on Frost, with the road less travelled. All these characters and more, play their part, your inner stage resounding with their magic, entertaining, informing, beguiling and enchanting you. Each poem brings its magic, which adds to the overall genius of the witch realm, which you will not want to put down.
Thank you..
