Hittite Poems


Satanology 10 Satan and David

Satan’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 ate; 
What then could determine Fate. 
Goliath’s Sword he’d criticized 
He later romanticized 
“There is none like it”
Just, to escape King Saul’s pit
Saul’s Doeg The Edomite 
To whom his life matched a mite…
 
Not long would count Whole Israel,
Even as Joab tried to rail;
Did not forget Shimei’s curse: 
Solomon should his life pause!

Lands and Empires

Kingdoms and countries fill the earth,
King and Queen, Prince and Princess wisely
Reign empire with providence sovereignty,
Royal rank, authority, and power with ties key.

Ancient Egyptian Empire also Hittite and Babylonian
Large empires Assyrian, Persian, and Median realms prong,
World of Roman Empire ruled for centuries long,
Carolingian Empire reigning in the old-world throng.

New world Incan and Mayan Empire taken over
Spanish Empire liked the gold and shipped to their king,
British Empire the sun never set grew far and wide
Austria-Hungary large European kingdom covering wing.

American and Canada countries in growth
Switzerland selling Swiss chocolate welcome sweet tooth,
Israel, Ireland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania independent
Australia, Portugal, Italy countries display the voting booth.

Horse Like Speed - Pathya Va

Chariots 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

Premium MemberAbu Simbel

Ramesses 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, and claimed, few surviving.
He build his cities beneath death's pall.

Worshiped was he in temples true
his semblance graces Abu Simbel       
with eyes wide o'er a lake so blue
his gaze belays the infidels.  
Beside him she, Queen Nefertari
laid claim to a sacred place
held above all others was his wife
most renowned for her beauty
a love to last through time and space
may all true hearts pay such tariff.

Uriah

Uriah'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 her husband by colluding
With his generals to make the Hittite die.  
Afoam with sweat, Bathsheba grinds the King
Indecently.  Beneath a yawning sky,
Uriah's writhing in the sand and gasping,
Holding his ****ing kidney in his hand.
I've never felt more sorry for a man.

Ham

Horeb centred divine son by alterity displaced
Africa calls your children, it is time to be embraced
Melchizedek Order, arise, minister in your place

                        2
Ham son of Noah
Africa light breaks dawn's grace
Melchizedek found

                        3
Ham's Hittite haunted by hungry hosts of hell
Aggressive sea-people soveriegn salt suckers swell
Melchidek's music mounting miracles against pagan spell

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, Nathan
Was called by God to give reproof,
David repented with deep sorrow;
His remorse no longer aloof.

God exalted David—
This one time shepherd boy;
Made him ruler over Israel ,
With a great army to deploy.
David surrendered to adultery;
Desired another man’s wife.
When she was found to be pregnant,
Sent her husband into his battle for life.

Uriah, Bathsheba’s husband
Was killed, as David had intended.
David greatly loved Bathsheba;
His palace to her he extended.
When David realized his sin,
Conveyed to him by Nathan,
He begged God’s forgiveness
For the sins of a complete pagan.

All sin misinterprets
The character of God above.
For his character is his law,
Based upon his awesome love.
So when we yield to temptation,
We glorify the evil one;
Misinterpret God’s character
And deny the great sacrifice of his Son.

Premium MemberRamesses Ii, Remembered Still

No 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        
his Ka rising from Death’s hand.

The hills of Thebes his place of rest   
and beneath him his father lay            
amongst the great he’d be the highest 
his battle standards on display.             
He ruled with iron hand on staff          
as a Godhead he was portrayed.           
Most mighty and acclaimed, no man
was he, who felled the Hittite chaff;    
beneath his chariots wheels flayed      
the denizens of Egypt’s land.

Worshiped was he in temples true
his semblance graces Abu Simbel       
with eyes wide o’er lake so blue
his gaze belays the infidels.  
Beside him she, Nefertari
laid claim to a sacred place
held above all others his wife
most renowned for her beauty
a love to last through time and space
may all true hearts pay such tariff.
