Array ( [sid] => 11325 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Bipolar christ [time] => 2003-01-26 09:00:00 [hometext] => found written on blue paper
after i had eaten 23 purple pills (Wellbutrin SR)
"eloi, eloi, lama sabachthani" is supposed to translate to "my god, my god, why have you forsaken me" which is, supposedly, what christ cried out shortly before expiring
looking back at the "poem" it makes no sense, but it meant alot to me then. i was on alot of medication. [bodytext] => always one extreme
or another
indifference unexceptable
in their crumbling Utopia

return with me to sodom
new eden vanquished
by sin and by flame

prophecy of the End
upon his head
return of failure
abundant in their house of god

resenting the christians
for whom he died
hatred for his father
he can no longer hide

temptations of the flesh
he is unable to resist
bereft of hope, he cries aloud
"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"
and slits wide his wrists
but only tears flow from his wounds
tears he "supposedly" shed for us

mortification, the new act of repentance
accepted by few

Language of the Unformed
escaping the tongues
of those not chosen by He/She
both and yet neither

Using the Majik
and the drinking of blood
no longer a game
but a ritual of survival

sway to the beats of soundless drums
the bones of his cattle beaten on his tomb

the ancient ways of life return
with the Reign of Terror and the Rain of Blood
follow the Unformed and blessed ye shall be

open my eyes
return to sand
memories and pleasures forgotten
Disintegrate

Wow, I don't see how he thought you were accepting God in that poem...hahaha. That's funny. Anyway, I thought it was a well done poem...I have my faith but I am not going to hold anything to you or your poetry...I thought it was beautifully expressed. Thanks for sharing. Lots of love, *Fiona*
