Horse Like Speed - Pathya VaChariots fly
With horse like speed
To lead the field
In war so dark
The Hittite ruled
Kadesh attacked
known battle track
Five thousand fought.
Hittite renowned charioteers
Hittites conquered Kadesh
Five thousand chariots took part was the largest chariot battle ever

Brutus Iulius Trois Page 08Brutus Iulius Trois page 08
Suddenly stillness all sounds silenced the last pirate slain.
From the bowels of the Tireme came cheers that grew louder
From men newly freed from their enslavement to the Thracian oars
Phyrgians, Scythians, Mysians and Lycians
all hittite clansmen, kinsmen...

UriahThe old Hittite came through the gate
Battle sharp and dripping
With the blackness of an Ethiopian night
The Kingdom of Zion to replicate
The compass star of David's sight
And through that gate walked with him
A destiny invisible of all the world
The crisis of a man by sin made...

Ramesses Ii, Remembered StillNo raised pinnacle marked the place
No pure white limestone shining
Where Ramesses slept looked commonplace
to foil the robbers scrying.
Yet he had moved the earth and sky
this pharaoh disdained all rivals.
His bounty buried beneath the sand
portrayed a life beneath blue skies
his star encrusted tomb ethereal ...

Laughing Pines, Part TwoWill you, won’t you join the dance,
We like to dance here every night,
Moving slowly at the speed of light.
Won’t you give yourself half a chance,
Even two left feet are alright.
The Bipolar Coaster is an excellent ride,
But it does have its ups and downs.
If you feel...

Abu SimbelRamesses rules with an iron hand
a god beneath a blistering sky
Hittite chaff fell, he took their land
beneath his chariots wheels they die.
Hundreds were herded slaves all
to serve at the pleasure of the King
man or beast he claimed by might
and for his pleasure they did brawl,
chained,...

The TellThe hill had stood on its plain for eons
between the mountains and the Sea,
Still, quiet, barren,
As the wind blew across it
And the stars shifted,
When a hunter
Eight thousand years ago
Saw the spring at its base
And lived for awhile on its summit
Then died.
Other people came and...

Columbus, You AgainColumbus, you again
Your rotten caravels still unforgotten
Silhouette of flitting bats
And old wives tale of true honor
For at each wheel
The old African seamen
Rana Raraku
And their big nose images of the Ra
Those who mined iron
For Hittite spear points
Sailing by the shadow of the sun
And the juxtaposition...

UriahUriah's bowels unraveled in the sand.
He thanked God for the gift of dying for
King David, who was master of the man.
Those Hittites never seemed to know the score.
Bathsheba was the prize that David sought,
Uriah inadvertently occluding
His royal lust, so winkling out a thought,
King David killed...

Gods Character Misinterpreted“…and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, “She is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam
and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.” 2 Sam 11:3 NIV
David’s sins misinterpreted
The character of God.
For his sins towards Bathsheba
Dishonored his precious Lord.
But when the prophet,...

Who Mourns For UriahWhen King David's men went out to fight,
he stayed back home to spend the night.
He stepped out on the rooftop in the evening air,
when a bathing beauty caught his stare.
So King David inquired who the woman might be.
He was told, Bathsheba the...

Satanology 10 Satan and DavidSatan’s dealing with King David
Would have God made livid
And then came Ruling David’s ‘Sorry’
That God gave back His Glory
And a bit pleasant The Gory,
Hittite quit in a hurry.
Satan still spared David not
And king scored another Naught:
Famished Bread of Presence...
