after awhile..
my flaming worship of Judaism's traditional,
ancient wise
and emphasis on learning--stopped burning
when I began to realize why the Jews of old
failed to recognize
the man from Galiliee..as the one from whom
they awaited deliverance

my former awe considerably cooled, when I saw
how they'd been fooled
by their own High Priests--those self-serving
Rabbis
who feared the Golden Rule would expose their
lies
and their teachings..as brass
and so ridiculed and rejected
the humble carpenter from Nazareth
when he rode into Jerusalem on a lowly ass
not at the head of a powerful Army, on a snow
white steed

after all, a Messiah's business is to lead,
not to plead
and surely not to bleed--on a cross.

this man was a freak, who championed the weak
defended the meek--and turned the other cheek
to Ceasar
it certainly had not been Moses' fashion
to show enemies compassion
Moses parted the Red Sea--and set their
people free
what kind of Messiah spends all his time
forgiving miserable sinners?
Abraham and David and Moses were winners
but Jesus was a loser, whose promises proved
impotent, empty and hollow

no god--only a man

a crucified prophet is a Saviour for fools
and Jesus broke all their messianic rules

then, following my Hebrew disillusion
came the end of my Inner Pilgrimage to the
Vatican
page 172
my fascination for the Catholic ritual's deep
mystery
buried somewhere behind Roman Church Law
ceased to magnetize me, when I clearly saw
that the Church is hiding more than mystery
from the light

such as, the reason for the marble tiles, in
the Pope's bathroom
inscribed with the twelve signs of the
Zodiac, from Aries through Pisces
from the Ram through the Fish

the real reason behind the sacrilegious
surgery of 300 A.D.
the murders of the bloody Inquisition
and the Council of Constantinople, in
430 A.D.--that time
of misguided dedication
when those allegedly infallible ones, in Rome
performed the shameful spiritual castration
of removing from the Bible all previous
reference to reincarnation
carving away their own foundation
leaving dull, sterile dogma..to replace
former faith

not to mention..
the well kept secret of the true symbolism
behind the mystical marriage of the Nuns to
Jesus

yes, Catholicism's ritual hides much mystery
behind Church history
and has also hidden Truth

but disillusioning me

even more than Catholicism's light tossing
away
of the logic of the Cause and Effect of the
doctrine of Karma
contained in the ancient precepts of
reincarnation

was the attitude taken by the Roman Vatican
toward Hitler's Nazi nation
when the Jews--and others--were being tossed
into
fiery furnaces
like so many helpless, struggling ants
tossed into flaming Matchstick Forts
and so..
the growing bubble of religious delusion
of the babbling dogmatic confusion
of Judaism's blindness--Catholic hypocrisy
swelled even larger with my observation
of the Protestant protesting bureaucracy
and the sterility of ritual, lacking mystical
symbolism
in those plain-Jane churches
of methinks thou dost protest too much
then finally burst wide open
POP!
page 173
leaving me with the limp, rubbery pieces
of my former balloon of trust..in all these
faiths
with seemingly, nowhere to turn
yet, still burning to learn--the Truth ..
consequently

after skipping and hopping
and starting and stopping
and tiptoeing and gliding
and walking and floating
and swimming and running
and crawling and falling

in and out of Synagogues, Catholic Masses--
and Protestant classes
in empty theology
I wandered next through Egyptian Mythology
and during that lingering spiritual crisis..
was deeply stirred
by the tragic fate of those Twin Souls
known as Osiris and Isis
an unsolved mystery
of ancient history..that still haunts me
in a strange, inexplicable way
..then one fine day

I stumbled on a brighter path, far from the
Holy Ghost's invisible wrath
and far from a vengeful god's angry
retribution of
"an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth"
a path which still leads me
slowly...toward enlightenment and Truth
through the time-tested teachings
of re-birth and astrology..even containing
a hint

to the final solution of all the confusion
in the Isis-Osiris mythology

yes, I wandered, at last, on the path of
the stars
and there I stayed--and there I remain,
through Sun and rain
part-time mystic, and full-time agnostic,
guided by Mars

yet..still secret druid
chanting deeper rites
of moonlit nights

The Black Madonna
goes much farther back
than that..in HIS sTORY...

I'm still spiraling with
your information..
waiting on affirmations...

but all I HEAR is

it's a-dog-a-dog-a-dog. ...

it's too obvious to be a Lion..

Osiris and Anubis
are the Lords of the Quick and the Dead
Judging and weighing our Karma-deeds...

fluttering birds of words...

Feather=father=ether=fear
=her earth=hear her...
here=there

I really believe the Sphinx
is a pair, here
and there

Anubis ssss secret!!!
