If Poets Wrote Holy Text
Folder:
Vintage Words
Religion would be totally uninterpretable
like the Bible and the Koran and, like
the Torah, require scholars and doctors
of religion and poetics to figure it out.
Neo parables for the masses, alliteration
for the singing public, a text filled with rhymes
to capture the imagination of little children and big
children. Imagery, to paint the lonely walk of each
prophet, each messiah, each holy man inspired
by heaven or paradise or nirvana.
The poet writers would be absolutely obscure,
clear for long passages, before they retreat back
into personal images that mean something only
to them and the God that inspired their writing.
Oh, that's a lot like what we have now. The truth
is a big concept and there is room for all kinds
of prophets and poets. Like love and peace and ultimate
everything, truth becomes more obscure the more
you read the source material in the original
poetic format.

How many sides to truth are
How many sides to truth are there? How many are visible? I am often aghast at those who are at the mercy of mens interpretations of something in comprehensible. Instead of a road to freedom the bind with chains of guilt and fear thus recognising power. A shepard is not a dictator, however he leads the flock and slaughters lambs. There is no truth but the one subscribed to. The mind boggles. The heart aches the soul knows.
Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS
"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."
"The heart aches and the soul knows."

The difference between
information and wisdom
lives in what the soul
whispers to the heart
what the soul hears
the heart say.
.
To know is not enough
to see is the leap into knowing
to remember and not
disregard motherwit lessons
learned age after age.
.
Not found in crystal balls
or the dice thrown, seers are
passe, statistics predict
depending on who comes
to the number's table.
.
Nowhere is the place
to find wise motion
in a world gone cuckoo.

So perfectly true as much as it is beautifully written. Amen.
