Dead godsA Poem by Adam ParkerAre the gods we know real? What about the gods of the first men? Do they die when they aren't believed in?
Gods are egotists.
they seize to exist when they are not worshiped, or do they? Is our god a benevolent trinity ? or Amun-Ra excavating the sand? Failing to exist when forgotten, or laying in the sky to withstand the blasphemy which it/they receive , praying for bent knee and broken sword. A picture comes to mind of those who worship the earth: Hittites in huts , or a tribe in the amazon ; the first men praising the sun and their sons. When death ensues in cold blackness will will face Zeus? Or will our hearts be balanced on scales with a feather ? The affirmation of the realisation that all of those who affirm their god is the one true god do not realise that all before them have said the same , are they sane or ignorant? To distinguish between what is theirs and what is ours, or what is nothing at all. © 2017 Adam Parker |
