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.

never seen it, but you gave me a reason to now. lol

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i thnk you might really appreciate it.

First off, great song to accompany your poem. I definitely believe in asking forgiveness from God with Jesus as his intermediary. No way will I ever ask a priest for forgiveness. He is a mere mortal. Part of the learning process of being an imperfect human is the guilt we live with when we hurt someone. A mafia member can kill and cheat on a Saturday night and then come in and do confessional...now that's a joke. "Well then, just say ten 'hail Mary' and be forgiven." Thought provoking and very original in it's layout:)

[Muse]

Amen to that Brother.

[Muse]

and what I forgot to say..traditions...rituals...it is all equivalent to thumb-sucking. It's just another way to pacify the wondering soul.

Religion is just that, 'RELIGION'. I hate it when people say to me, "Dean, you MUST go to church..." Why?, I say. I believe in God. I pray. I treat people as I want them to treat me. So, why must I go sit in a building full of hypocrites to prove my faith? Oh, I used to, two days a week. You know what I got out of it? I realized after awhile, after seeing some of those same people, people who were married, drinking, swearing, hitting on the young chickies down at the local convenience store, that RELGION was not for me. But God?Yeah, I'll take Him over RELIGION any day of the week! Kudos to you!

Sad I know...so many people I know... talk the talk...but they don't however, walk the walk. :(

WOW. I love your thoughts! ~ Thank you for this poem Muse! You are truely called a muse for a reason~ hehee. I believe in the same thing. I was brought up a Catholic but i never understood the religion. Heaven and hell made no sense to me.. and to worship a God that I never connected with. Right now, I don't actually follow a specific religion but I am spiritual. I believe in many things, especially regarding nature. But it is one's true self who will guide you to your own belief. =) I actually practice the Craft. It frees me more than anything ~
Thank you for your wise poem Muse. Thank you. I love this so!

[Muse]

I have mixed feelings about the craft...I think it is a very real power that is stronger than "us". Not to be tapped into lightly. But if it brings you peace...and all you share with it is love and wisdom...then shine on beautiful.

[Sleeping Maiden]

Thank you Muse. =) Well, the power comes from within us as well. It is one's energy that provides power. But yes, it isn't something to take lightly. I know that already. =) Thank you dear! I shall. It truely does give me peace. And I often wish i could share its wisdom soemday~

[EMF]

OH, Hot damn your good. And ffrom one sinner to another, this is stunning. You go straight for the jugular in killer heels. tearing at hypocricy and the sins of our 'Masters of the Mind'. And there speaks an excommunicate.

[Muse]

I was raised Southern Baptist mind you...if my family was to read this...they would send me off to the guillotines. lol

[...]

Amen sister! I practice no religion. religion is man made and segregates and condemns! Awesome piece of in your face belief.

[Muse]

I believe in clarity. If I cannot feel the wisdom from within...then I find no purpose for it. I don't think any man is perfect...but that is why we are such an incredible creation. We have freedom of choice...and it's through the power of choice...that we can redeem ourselves.

That is a beautiful view, muse :)

I agree i will never think a human needs to hear my sins I take them with me I stand for my own self pay my own way and I don't believe someone can die 2000 yrs ago and pay forward for all the sins of the world Top that I would say tell that story to Anne Frank and the 6 millions Jewish .Bravo

[Muse]

I may strike a raw nerve for a few readers here. But I don't really care. Not poking fun at any particular religion. I just get tired of people who "jump"...because they were just told too because some book said so...or some religious figure said so. I can write a book too...sell it to some con-artist who can start a church...create a piece of scripture that says shave your head today or there will be no salvation. You know my stance with God Tate...I am a believer...but I will not be spoon fed the truth...I must discover it for myself.

Bravo welcome to the world of the enlightened.
