The Book of Beelzebub
Forever, I lurk within shadowy wings
Betraying my friends for the silver it brings
Once I was the shepherd, 'n' leading the flock
Now I am the warden, 'n' guarding the lock.
Those who besmirch me, a'drown in the flood
The sweat from your nightmares, sustaining my blood
I, the creator of thousand-year rains
And I am the master of all that

Within The Walls of Blasphemy
I abhor what I believe in
Yet, I adore it at the same time
What does this mean?
The lack of good conduct?
A mind of selfish ambition?
Maybe a crisis in identity?
My hubris intentions are in conflict
In conflict with a powerful being
I'm powerless but not forgotten

A Murder of Crows, A Pantheon of Gods!
A Murder of Crows, A Pantheon of Gods!
Monotheism, we’re told, is the way it should be.
But the Heavenly Court doesn’t make it agree.
Similar to the pantheons of many a belief.
All kinds of beings with a head guy as chief.
Whether Zeus or Odin, whatever their name,
The behaviors and hierarchies are always the same.
(The heavenly court or

Hearts Shadows
Broken heart black with grief casting shadows
Teal tears grabbing wrinkled cheek as if life lines save souls
Precious memory of good weighing the bad
deciding to sing the blues
Bloody blasphemy!
How dare you put less value on the grim events!
Without them time has no measure of merit
Gold and silver mean nothing to the pigs
Who love the dirt of

BLASPHEMY
What the WORLD say you are
Versus what the WORD say you are.
They say "the child of human is human"
only because the human is borne out of woman.
They say "A puppy is a juvenile dog"
And it's birth have the others agog.
Baby goat is a kid that neither walks nor hoops.

as a half-baked biscuit.

Pagans Protest the Intolerance of Christianity
by Michael R. Burch
“We have a common sky.” — Quintus Aurelius Symmachus
We had a common sky
before the Christians came.
We thought there might be gods
but did not know their names.
The common stars above us?
They winked, and would not tell.
Yet now our fellow mortals claim
our questions merit hell!
The cause of our damnation?
They

Altared Spots
by Michael R. Burch
The mother leopard buries her cub,
then cries three nights for his bones to rise
clad in new flesh, to celebrate the sunrise.
Good mother leopard, pensive thought
and fiercest love’s wild insurrection
yield no certainty of a resurrection.
Man’s tried them both, has added tears,
chants, dances, drugs, séances, tombs’
white alabaster prayer-rooms, wombs
where dead men’s

Blasphemy of Course
Blasphemy of course, the blood seekers wailed.
Afraid of her God, Baal, terrified of her tantric sexuality
She was all the things they feared the most.
Assertive, calm, self-pronounced, meditative,
Thoughtful. She would turn the women into thinkers!
She was golden to their pretend silver.
Fear encouraged them to plot her demise and death
She is a jezebel, one who had been

"The Truth will out."
- So say the sages.
Yet lies proliferate-
Pages and pages;
Though the nude Emperor parades,
Sans clothes and sense,
His adoring subjects embrace his charades
Trading reality for reassurance;
This is not a new occurrence.
We've been down this road before
And know where it must end.
It will drag us to enslavement, and finally to war.
The devout can never see
While
