Antichrist

I will never confess my sins to an infallible mortal. It's between me and God. Not between man and man.

Just
words
OBSCURED.

A thistle of hurt, it
pricks like a kiss.
This dull knife finds my wrist.

Confess.
Confess they say......
or there will be hell to pay.
Fire away..fire away.

I can't
Because....
I won't.

Too many psalms
without a quote.
I see....
a coward's smile
that braves only the dark. 

Confess.
Confess they say.
I am the lark.

Who do you bow down to?
Have you any clue?
666
This imperfection of ours
it's dark
I know it's dark.
But it becomes my....

          beauty
           mark.






Confess...
Confess they say.
So I take another drag in,
PUFF....
smoke in your face
taste my disgrace.

Confess...
Confess they say.
Show me a Pope,
a Priest,
with no sin to pay.
And I will...I will.
I will confess!

Author's Note

I posted this viral video...to show how many false Gods we worship even in our Government. They have no minds of their own...like the religious leaders of today....we take for granted everything that they do and say.....




Interested in an analysis of all the occult symbolism? Check out this site..they do an excellent job of shedding light on the obscure truth.

"show me a priest with no sins" yes,

well, i have strong feelings about organized religion (raised catholic) and the majority are not positive...

especially the whole confession thing...

i think this raises some good points about what we worship today in our society...

your writing is quite thoughtful...and it makes us stop and think...

i really enjoy visiting your page...

another level.

I thought I might get some slack on writerscafe for posting this...but it ended up being quite the opposite. So that leads me to believe...so many of us are disgusted and tired of the facade....

[jacob erin-cilberto]

did you ever see "Dogma"

that caught a lot of flack, especially from the Catholic church...but really there was a lot of truth in that movie.

similar to your poem.

Understood. I feel much the same way. Love how you've expressed this, though. I don't know that I could have put it so well. Xo. Thanks!

[Dean]

I think we need more action, and less confession. I would not be shriven by myself.

[John F]

i feel it is the job of the atheist to be grounded in reason and logic, as the burden of proof is not upon us. ( i realise i'm assuming your an atheist but i have to assume to have a reaction i guess :P)

while you have failed in this regard(:P), you succeed in pouring fire on the flames of bitterness to get the heart pumping! wonderfully expressive dear poet.

[Muse]

Contrary my friend...I'm a very religious person...but I scoff at the believers and disbelievers that know "not why" they believe-in what they do.

[John F]

ah i see. i shouldn't assume is the lesson here :P

i'm slightly confused about what it is you are saying. you have a problem with those who belief with no reason or those who don't believe but live as though they do?

[Muse]

I have a problem with those that "talk the talk" but don't "walk their walk."

[John F]

thank you :) it is clear now. wonderful poetry kind lady :)

[Muse]

Everyone should have their own faith, and honesty. And may speak open about it. If my internet works again, I shall study the attachments better. But for now, you did what you had to do dear. I understand the parallel thought as no one better, lost people in real life into insanity. Beautiful and unique.

Thank you E.L. xo. :)

This is what I love to see. A lady that is not afraid to speak a piece of her mind. I respect you for your honesty, and I love how this poem bites like a rattle snake . This is such a powerful piece. I love the message that you have displayed, and I can hear this chant every time I read it. Great work ,my dear :)

[Muse]

And speak my voice I do! :)))

[Neva Flores Smith - Cha..]

Muse, this is a fascinating write...........running deep.......excellent work!

[Muse]

Thanks Neva

[Freedom's Child]

I really like your writing and agree completely! The flow on this piece is exceptional, and really draws the reader and puts them there. "Too many psalms without quotes" is my favorite line and requires the reader to think.

[Muse]

My intentions were never to get the reader to agree with me...but instead "think" and "question" what we thought we knew...and what we believe in.

[Kenneth The Poet]

I am lapsed Catholic and there's much that's changed with the liturgy in the last year or so. I keep phrasing things as I've learned them and a lot of it sounds like a suicide letter or at the very least a subtle form of fascistic dehumanization. And considering the sins of Rome and how many fringe Christians think the church is the seat of the Antichrist, you speak much truth that many already know about but won't say publicly. A vivid, vivacious piece of vehemence on your part, Dear Muse.

[Muse]

thank you for offering your views and support. I wasn't sure how to put this into words without offending many people...but I later decided that we are all adults around here...for the most part anyways. lol So I was hoping it would generate some positive conversations...and that...it did! :)

[Kenneth The Poet]

Thanks for this. It was an excellent read.

[Lily Mae]

I worked for the Catholic Church for 17 years and watched with eyes wide open what really happens in the life of...and you know what.. the day I see them confess their truth ...is the day I will get on my knees and do the same.. Otherwise..it's between my God and Me..xo
I think your a fun little pot stirrer;) xo

[Muse]

Some day I'll get my hands burned stirring the pot...but until then...why not mix up a little controversy? lol
