douglas Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 To The Shrinejezebel took me there to the shrine with a head dress of gold and henna tattoos upon her face she led me into the holiness dancing with her erotic bronzed hips between lotus flowers leading me past shiva and krishna and jesus and buddha introducing me to gaia and allah and venus and zeus and aphrodite embraced us tenderly leading us to the alter of bleeding sacrifices where hearts and flowers and spices were thrown into a chalice of salvation for the longing souls of man i prayed to all of the gods and the goddesses begging them to overlook the transgressions of our religiosity of our religious age and then i danced with nanook twirling below the sun of ra and we chanted to the universal ones save us from this save us from this confusionand the fires roared and michael and gabriel and uriel and raphael came to comfort me hades and eros danced together upon sacred ground and then there was a beautiful silence a holy lack of sound and the guardians of the faithful incorrectly christened and worshipped chastised themselves with briars desiring their humility and subservience to be seen clearly and the congregation cut the throats of bulls and birds and danced until their eyes rolled back into their headsand the water nymphs came and the sirens whispering watery songs from the seas and streams into our dry souls and our energies merged and became whole and i felt the blessed incantation rushing into my core the gods of the amazon were also there and the spirits of the volcanoes and the islands and there was gold and silver and rain and mud the many faces of our beloved god and our forgotten goddess appeared in resplendence framed by stars and crystals we heard the songs of the blameless and we worshipped not knowing where to look next together in the shrine before the anointed prophets and flowers opened and children were born and bombs exploded and humanity was left forlorn whiteness and humility thrown upon the floor and a mantra of healing was sung "learn to love yourself we implore!" then came the artists and poets and philosophers the intellectuals the soothsayers and the knowledge, creativity and searching of man was revealed amid the vaulted architecture and the grandeur and a loud scream was heard our collective voice rising up to heaven to our eternal resting place the dimension of light and the souls of the destroyers and the wicked writhed in bondage upon the earth bound by their sanctimonious curses that bruised and contaminated the offerings offered within the shrine and mother nature recoiled forced to reject these blinded children forced to destroy their crude, tumultuous creations and the energy of our planet manifested itself in glorious light showing us all that without tolerance wisdom and understanding we shall never be whole oh unseeing people at war with yourselves you irreverent creations who bicker and delve into things that were not meant for you to dissect open your eyes and see that the infinite mystery has not cannot yet be revealed to the shrine i was led the shrine that holds the secrets of the ages past and yet to come to the shrine we must all go back to the shrineit holds all of the mysteries we seek if we seek them in silence and with reverence Quote To receive love, you have to give it...
