Anubis Sent Me
Note: Anubis opened the gate wide for travelers into the afterlife. This is what the climb was like to the highest mountain into Hades. Anubis is the Egyptian god of the dead with the dog or jackel head. In Egypt people believed a journey was required to reach the afterlife.
The air shifted all around me and a dark white light
Surrounding overflowing
With an aura of radiant density
The shifting of air was not of the wind
But of bodies moving through time
My way
Anubis commanded the dead be set free
And they raised from the grave
Blow on each person Anubis did
And they came to life
To begin their travel to Hades
Their way was to the peak of the highest mountain
To consecrate themselves and enter in
Yoked with energy and tide and heaviness
Slender waisted watchers along the way singing melodies
Of hints of green and ash and liveliness
Grass that touched the bare feet of these pilgrims
Bridges that surfaced upon necessity
Bullets of information and wisdom written on scroll walls
Hung from the sky
Rain that wasn’t wet but one could see like clear snow
Purple haze, white smoke
Black eyed children trying to veer people off the path of bronze and silver
With teases
Mermaids and sirens ashore looking for wanderers
Temptation brewing
Cosmos shifting
Dry lightning summering at dusk
Prayers lifting upwards from the few
Dogs howling
Angels tied up on wooden trees
Naturalists summoning the dead to come higher on the path
Righteous women bathing properly
Saints opening door after door for those nearing
I walked through 5 doors and motioned my heart to stop beating
I swam unevoked through a muddy river untouched by dirt
I created art work for a primal landowner
In exchange for rest upon a maple
And the bridges came
And the top of the mountain came before me
And the peak withered before my eyes
And I fell into the pit of Hades
Landing before sunrise
To my new home
The afterlife would be of magic and course lingo
With private moments with the gods
Who thrived there
And I wet my eyes
And I soiled my arms
And I removed my jewels to become.
