Suffer the little children…
I loathe this world of nothing magpies and farthing dreams.
Suffer the little children…
"I hear god. He speaks to me."
Suffer the little children…
"Give to me your holy offering of blood,
and I will give you GOD!"
The children come to the one, offering their blood as he intones: "et erat in deserto quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus et temptabatur a Satana eratque cum bestiis et angeli ministrabant illi"
…
"postquam autem traditus est Iohannes venit Iesus in Galilaeam praedicans evangelium regni Dei"
…
"et dicens quoniam impletum est tempus et adpropinquavit regnum Dei paenitemini et credite evangelio"
…
"et praeteriens secus mare Galilaeae vidit Simonem et Andream fratrem eius mittentes retia in mare erant enim piscatores"
Soft, small, innocent bodies, some motionless, some quivering at his feet, exalt in his words. "Spread your religion, your dictates, your sincerity, and all that you perceive in a vain attempt to have a shared reality. This is impossible. Cease your attempts to confine reality to a single interpretation. We know the answer. Bring back the land east of paradise, the land of dreams. It is the land of the Bride of our Father. She bore Enoch well for him, and she shall bear that son/city once more, and remake this place into the city of the Father." The vessel is brought forth, an empty, broken shell, waiting to be filled.
The mass of red bodies, washed in blood and gore, heed the words of the prophet/mage: "dixitque ei Dominus nequaquam ita fiet sed omnis qui occiderit Cain septuplum punietur posuitque Dominus Cain signum ut non eum interficeret omnis qui invenisset eum"
…
"egressusque Cain a facie Domini habitavit in terra profugus ad orientalem plagam Eden"
…
"cognovit autem Cain uxorem suam quae concepit et peperit Enoch et aedificavit civitatem vocavitque nomen eius ex nomine filii sui Enoch"
Thusly annointed, the night goes on…
[Mark 1:13] et erat in deserto quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus et temptabatur a Satana eratque cum bestiis et angeli ministrabant illi
[Mark 1:14] postquam autem traditus est Iohannes venit Iesus in Galilaeam praedicans evangelium regni Dei
[Mark 1:15] et dicens quoniam impletum est tempus et adpropinquavit regnum Dei paenitemini et credite evangelio
[Mark 1:16] et praeteriens secus mare Galilaeae vidit Simonem et Andream fratrem eius mittentes retia in mare erant enim piscatores
[Mark 1:13] And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
[Mark 1:14] But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
[Mark 1:15] Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
[Mark 1:16] And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
[Gen 4:15] dixitque ei Dominus nequaquam ita fiet sed omnis qui occiderit Cain septuplum punietur posuitque Dominus Cain signum ut non eum interficeret omnis qui invenisset eum
[Gen 4:16] egressusque Cain a facie Domini habitavit in terra profugus ad orientalem plagam Eden
[Gen 4:17] cognovit autem Cain uxorem suam quae concepit et peperit Enoch et aedificavit civitatem vocavitque nomen eius ex nomine filii sui Enoch
[Gen 4:15] Then the LORD said to him, "Not so! If any one slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who came upon him should kill him.
[Gen 4:16] Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
[Gen 4:17] Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
