Empire Wolf Brother Capital Romeing

Striding into and under the town gate's Two brother's came a riding wolf back Searching for a capital city on which to build an empire forth Subjugating the masses into subject's And the battled conquered into slavery Ceaser , Emperor , Senator Pretorians , Centurions , Gladiator at the ready to guard the faith From pagan diety to singularity theologians And so usher in the origins of Catholicism and the Holy Bible To build a church opon the basis of the teachings of the Jew once crucified named Jesus Who entered Jerusalem astride a donkeys back to heal the sick and poor and speak of love and forgiveness Who ended up becoming Jesus of the new Jerusalem Who's capital still to this day is based in Rome be that Vatican City Ever since and before the dark ages of enlightenment

I actually find it difficult to opine on this one Christopher, everything we know about the history of Christianity is open to interpretation, look at all the different branches of it, I do not deny the fact that Rome became Christian but it did not happen seamlessly overnight, your poem is a fantastic interpretation of this story really well crafted and thought out, love that dark ages of enlightenment stanza at the end, because that is where the water muddies for me anyway, cheers David

Human History is very sketchy we probably know more about the dinosaurs than dark ages, sometimes humans rewrite history to suit themselves, black adder is an absolute authority on history’s truths, they point out the obvious yet it’s hilarious very strange indeed

Jesus was Jewish David and the Son of God therefore theoretically wouldn't he be Jewish ? Repatriated and claimed by the Romans in the name of there own Church

Indeed David The Romans where the best record keepers in history yet they have no written documented historical record of him therefore open to interpretation ?? No it didnt happen overnight it was formed by the politics of the day. Everything you said is right regarding this. And as you so correctly pointed out Dark Ages / Enlightenment ?
