pass not over

[serge gurkski]

Humming soothings to my heart
like a tomcat close to death,

On Good Friday I am bleeding
for a liar crucified:

No more blood of lambs on doorposts.
First of Passovers has passed!

--

i love it....it feels right...but ...it looks disjointed.,

what is humming?
in the 2nd; why are you bleeding even if it's metaphorical bleeding (or not)?

the last is the part i loved, though i have no idea why. did someone die and now the passover is pointless?

sorry if all i have bring is questions

Not at all Billy. Good points.
Let me first try to rephrase the message in S1 in prose:

I wish I would be like a cat
purring to soothe herself /my heart
in the hour of death /dying.

ok.

the bleeding is metaphorical (for feeling pain over someone having presumably (I was not there) being tortured and executed (Mel Gibson anyone). In my opinion he was a human like all of us netherlings, if he ever was at all. The lie is the promise of afterlife. It is mad and obscene bc it made millions of people butcher others and getting butchered bc they reallybelieved they would have a glorious afterlife, so wtf about this one here. The same delusion survived into the Koran. etc.

the last S: replies directly to the Hebrews in the original passover narrative of Exodus: offering lambs' lifes saved theirs'. And I am anwering by saying: yes, but just for this one night. So why all the partying? and: let us stop killing the lambs. It won't help. not really.

And crepus might have thought I referred to Good friday Belfast 98 ,-) but I swear I did not. ;-)

There one interesting notion: Now in Easter (Christian) metaphorology Jesus is the lamb (pure so to be qualifying to be offered to the Lord) but he turns into the scapegoat (taking the sins of the community). They were damn sophisticated those old xtians, even if completely looney ,-)

And on that lighter note

cheers
with red wine even. (Oh Lord, you taste yummy tonite!)

(Shouldn't have watched Life of Brian on Easter Sunday I guess)
