as god sought shelter from a world of hate,
the priest led her to the collection plate.
“Give what you seek and you shall find”
was the message they had inscribed
tears fell quickly from her eyes
as she now fully realised
even in here, love had died
this was her world she had incarnated to see
to witness her creation’s evolution with their free
-will
.
how far they had all descended
from the frequency she had intended
was it too late to turn this around?
poisoned hearts of evil now everywhere to be found
men of bitterness and hate
men of jealousy and rape
using fear to control the mind
determined to keep her womankind
-oppressed
.
all the men were fully infected
no one on earth was left unaffected
and with women so abused and disempowered
no child could be conceived without being soured
so she created a baby within her womb
drawing upon the energies of the new moon
a boy conceived of purest love
infused with the frequency of the heavens above
he would grow up to lead them all
for centuries after his inevitable fall
-and murder
.
she placed a coin onto the plate of gold
as the priest grinned widely with greed so bold
hand to belly and drawing deep breath
she exhaled a storm from her chest
mary walked in it’s eye all the way home
protecting her and jesus from energies of harm
she calmly planned tonight’s meal
where it was finally time to reveal
her true identity which had been concealed

Why Just Write Is The Best Advice You Don’t Listen To
Before the last 6 months, I hadn’t written anything that wasn’t for my job or university for a number of years. I wanted to write more, I used to write all the time just for fun. I used to write poems and short stories that were just for me. I used to show them to certain members of my family but it was the process of writing them that I really enjoyed.

This is such an original take on one of the most famous stories ever told Kayleigh! I like the careful message here about how women were treated, and "he would grow up to lead them all for centuries after his inevitable fall" is a fantastic line.
"she exhaled a storm from her chest". Gosh this line hit me so hard and I felt it so deeply in my bones! Your poem was so poignant and emotional!
This was a beautiful take on this story! Well done Kayleigh!
I do feel Joseph got played a bit in all this!
I wasn't planning on crying tonight, but now I can't stop. This is so sad and beautiful. The last verse is truly heart-rendering ❤️🩹. Is this in honor of Easter?
