Baphomet Rising
Bella Shepard said:
Confounding, and yet I think credulous, showing us a side of humanity that is difficul to grasp. At least that\'s what I think, I could be wrong. I love the challenge, and you certainly came through.

I have read this a few times now, and clearly it is of a darker nature, but i cannot help thinking this is referring to a specific person who lords it over the world today, interesting and really well written write, enjoyed

Baphomet Rising
sorenbarrett said:
I love the creative word play in this poem where the first letter in the line above serves as the same letter in the vertical line, the division of a word to lend ambiguity and double meaning to the phrase but most of all I love the concept that both God and Satan are one in the same and that both are us God in the I am and Satan in a mirror. Duality in its inversion and reflection. A concept not grasped by most Christians. Are not Christ and Satan brothers? Loved the poem a fave The symbols of the delta or triangle and upside down and crossed through delta as well. The pyramid in form and the all seeing eye.

A bit of a twist with the writing for the eyes! Well-written, your poem, \"Baphomet Rising,\" explores themes of duality, identity, and societal hypocrisy through the lens of Baphomet, a symbol often associated with occultism and the balance between opposites (good and evil, male and female, human and beast). The poet, embodying Baphomet, confronts humanity\'s flaws, self-deception, and moral failures, suggesting that these issues are inherent within each individual. The poet aims to provoke thought and self-reflection in readers, challenging them to confront their own beliefs and actions in relation to societal problems. The invocation of Baphomet serves to disrupt traditional understandings of divinity and morality, inviting a reevaluation of how these concepts are perceived in today\'s world.

Baphomet Rising

This poem is a thunderous invocation and mirror that is no gentle verse but a liturgy of confrontation. It borrows the thespian cadence of ritual and unravels it into prophetic rebuke. It doesn’t ask for admiration but it demands reckoning. Its fury is sacred, and its language theatrical in the way prophetic texts often are. It reminds us that monsters are often made of truth we’ve ignored, and that divinity rarely conforms to comfort.

Hello Tristan,
A strong and perfectly composed sonnet. The vein of the divine cutting through each verse as if out of the pages of history itself. The final couplet, a hallelujah moment - one of great understanding. Terrific, my friend.
Fond regards,
Tony.

I called in Fido to explain epiclesis to me, though I did know of Epictetus, a philosopher or summat of centuries ago. i thought this was gonna be about him. lol.
Go to Specsavers Orchi, says Fido to me.
Completely nutty comment - is Epictetus related to Popeye? If he is, don\'t answer how or why. lol.

I am sacrilegious for laughing silently over this invocation which seems verily akin to the image topping it, but, curiously enough, one of the verses in Proverbs 20 addressed this [we have been reading a Proverbs-a-day for decades now], \"....Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?\" (Prov 20:9) And yes, you will remind me of what the lines above say, namely that the speaker didn\'t etc. But. Gorgeously rendered with excellent imagery and a keenly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Well-written, your poem \"Epiclesis\" masterfully reveals the profoundly transformative power of divine love and spiritual awakening, illuminating the triumphant journey from despair to enlightenment. It thoughtfully underscores the imperative of confronting one\'s inner void to attain renewal and a deeply meaningful connection with a higher truth. The poet extends an inspiring invitation to confront one\'s inner void and wholeheartedly embrace the transformative power of love and truth. It gently yet persuasively suggests that neglecting this journey is a disservice to oneself, encouraging readers to seek enlightenment and a profound connection with the divine.

You wrote this, this irresistible beauty when you were 14?! I had my first \"official\" boyfriend when I was only 14, nor did I compose more than bitty stanzas and light poems when I was 14. Impressive! Wow. This pretty number, this invitation, this plea for purity rendered frankly in delicious simplicity with excellent imagery, has a deeply haunting poignancy. I love, love, LOVE it. Thank you so very much for sharing. I love it.

From the hip and with gusto as if composed in a fit of pique. Great song, great voice and great music, especially the intro - loved it. Much praise for this one.
Wishing you the very best,

You did live in a dark world back in the day, and when you are there it feels like death is playing with you, it takes hold and squeezes but never enough for it to be final, nicely expressed and written and sung
