Anubis

The guiding god of underworld

I have an eyes to look further
I have a nose to breath and smell
I have a mouth to eat and defend
I have a body, it's my identity
I have four legs to walk and run
I have a tail to show you my feelings
and a heart like yours
and my own constellation Canis Major
and you call me as a friend
walking for time immortal
and you are horrified by my howling
I am Anubis, the great God of funerary rites
and a guide to the underworld for you.

Good read. Imaginations of the afterlife and what may lie beyond that. 'Do not fear death, the absolute completion of life, it awaits everyone.'
As for me, I am planning on living forever.

Thank you friend 😊

There may be a reason for that horror. Most people don't seem to be too keen on meeting the god of funerary rites just yet.

Thank you friend 😊

The Butcher of Tel Aviv is sending thousands upon thousands to Anubis with impunity. I hope him and his extremists will be next to visit Anubis; the world will be a better place.
All lives matter.

Don’t you just love those ancient Gods and pyramids. The Egyptian cats and Anubis. Enjoyed the poem.

I've always had a deep love for Anubis, and this feels like a nice little nod to someone I also call friend. Well done.
