I have always loved the Jewish people & Israel. however, the Rabbis have built a wall a wall of slaver within and around the very Torah (Law of Moses) that they asset they are protecting.

The Enigmatically Idiotic Idiosyncrasies

Of Not Doing That Which Is Work

Upon Shabbat (The 7^th Day Jewish Sabbath)

The Torah (Law) of Moses,

does clearly and implicitly Command:

One is not to do that which is work

upon any given Shabbat (Sabbath Day)¹,

And so, in fervent desire to obey

-- and diligently keep the Sabbath --

many sincere people go to extremes,

extremes of endeavoring to be holy.

Thus embracing self-enslavement

to the enigmatically idiotic idiosyncrasies

of not doing that which is work

on Shabbat (The 7^th Day Jewish Sabbath).

For, strangely, it is considered as work

-- and, therefore, wrong --

to answer one's phone on the Sabbath,

wrong to do so many trivial things.

(turn light switches on and off, etc.)

that it is almost like a song,

a song of building an overly protective wall

around the basic simplicity that is the Torah

as to that which is right and which is wrong

to do on the Jewish Sabbath Day.

And yet, the reality of necessity

does dictate a rather unclean fact:

One does wipe one's a*s on Shabbat,

for taking a dump is duly permitted,

though some tear toilet paper sheets

in wisdom's ingenious preparation

for said daily dump's sordid leavings,

but do fail to consider it a bit of work,

to squeeze out a Sabbath Day's t**d.

Thus, if so many trivial daily tasks of life,

are zealously defined and considered as work,

is it not also work

to turn the daily prayer pages

of one's Tanahk,

or one's Sidur (Jewish Prayer Book)

on the Sabbath Day?

Thus embracing self-enslavement

to the enigmatically idiotic idiosyncrasies

of not doing that which is work

on Shabbat (The 7^th Day Jewish Sabbath.

If one wishes to keep the Torah,

what is needed is a, heaping helping,

filled to overflowing, plate of balance,

duly seasoned with sound reasoning.

As for me, I am not an advocate,

nor a supporter of any variety

of Organized Religion:

I.E.: Judaism, Islam, or Christianity,

which are a form of Organized Crime².

Be it known³: I refuse to embrace the Trinity's Doctrine

of Taxes, Tithes, & Lies sold as a fool's fodder

by the Elite's orchestration of a Uniting of Nations

thus, giving birth to the Ghastly Goons of Globalism⁴

working in complicity with Religion's Leaders,

who are no more than bleeders and breeders

of bold faced, fabricated, fairy-tale, mythological lies

created by mere men who do ever so boldly

seek to render all Humanity as mental slaves

and as but Sheeple-People⁵ Cattle,

for who was the Wizard of Oz⁶ (strength),

but a man -- and NO God …!

5 Sheeple-People Cattle — Sheeple-People — A word and term which I have expanded upon and find myself favoring in my attempt to communicate the all too factual reality that people tend to allow themselves—even seem to want—to be led, watered, and fed, much like sheep, trusting others with decisions and truths regarding their lives, their futures, their welfare, and their safety, rather then shouldering up such responsibilities themselves as individuals, in finding and enjoying the comfort of numbers. The word sheeple was first coined by actress and Wall Street Journal writer, Barbara Anderson, in 1984.

Reviews

[Bhuyanshi Talukdar]

Your poem is quite thought-provoking and explores the complexities of religious observance and the challenges of balancing tradition with practicality. The use of metaphor and imagery is particularly effective in conveying the emotions and themes of the poem. The final lines of the poem are particularly striking, with the speaker expressing a sense of frustration and questioning the logic of certain religious practices. Overall, your writing is a thoughtful and evocative exploration of the human heart and the complexities of faith and tradition.

Bhuyanshi,

Thank you so very much for reading this somewhat controversial piece of unorthodox Poetry. As I progressed, as I grew, (I do not support Evolution as per Darwin's Theory of Evolution, but) as I evolved, learned due the face that I have always been a Journalism (entered college with a full paid scholarship but dropped out to take care of my wife and family) minded Research writer of articles devoted to stating facts, and not another writer's opinion, and so, I grew up in the Holiness Church beneath the guidance of my grandmother, then in my teens I attended the Lutheran Church with my cousins, and my uncle was a Baptist Bible Fellowship Minister and he and his wife were Missionaries in the Philippines for around 15 years before returning to the states to be missionaries in Arizona, in the duration of which I began as a Southern Baptist Preachers who tended to Preach too much of the law and not near enough Grace (or so I was told at the time) and eventually my wife and I had thought to decide to give our lives, also, to the Missionary field ... It was during those educational times that I learned that The Church knows facts of history, facts regarding so-called Jesus, facts regarding religion as a whole, that Pastors know, but are instructed to wisely not reveal to the dumbass sheep of the flock that they tend and depend upon for the very tithes and offering that pay their salaries and support their denomination as a whole. Truth of historical facts don't mean diddly squat to Organized Relgion's agenda that I have self-coined ad the one and only true and relevant Trinity in existence upon this Earth: Taxes, Tithes, & Lies ... During the process of devoting my life to studying the Scriptures and attempting to balance Scripture with History and Science my family and I ventured down many paths in seeking to that which was right and true, and also seeking to know who and what we were as a people ... Thus, we, lastly, went through a phase of learning to where we sought to find and live the possibility of our Jewish roots or lifestyle ... At the end of my personal road of study, study, study, I concluded this: Some thing or some one, or some it definitively and definitely brought the Universe of our existence into Existence ... But I shall state and never deter from stating that my many years of in depth research and study have led me to a calm, quiet, and resolute conclusion: There is a Generative Source of all Existence out there in that somewhere that Man has never me, nor shall he ever know, but there is no God except in the deceived minds of those taken captive by the minions of Organized Religion, for reality is: God is Man just as Man is God: i.e.: Man created the very concept of God, and those in charge profit by that very creation's existence through the power and control which it gives them over the lives of the mind blinded masses of Humanity ...

I don't think God would agree with organized religions who take religion to extreme. And some surely do make organized religion seem like Organized Crime.

[Marvin Thomas Cox-Flynn de Graham]

Jacob,

Your are ever so rights ... Thanks for reading and for the very kind comment.
