A tale with a tail

History has many eyes,

devouring fact, spitting out bones

Victorious predator, truth does disguise

stifling vanquished moans

 

Beast that lives and dies

some grow a folk tail

When fed, a baby legend cries

Birthed in a breeze turned into a gale

 

Now myth, a phoenix that never dies

Spawned from a discarded egg

From ashes it does arise

It stands without a leg

 

A book full of holes

Plastic, man made trolls

Worshiped saints shaped of play dough

God\'s rumbling voice in a tornado

The ark from Mesopotamian rain

Baby Moses stole Osiris\' name

If not for Mithra there\'d be no Christ
