Magdalene’s Resurrection

 

Sitting up on resurrection hill

Easter morning on the way

Peering through the smoky haze

Curses sliding through her lips.

 

Parade of holiness below

Peter, Paul, and Jesus too.

Cold barbwire around her heart

Watching for her chosen few.

 

Her body hot and open wide

Spirit pushing for release

Sex constantly on her tongue

Peter offers her sweet peace.

 

Old black crow loudly caws

The earth begins to move

Magdalene stands and spits

Her church will always disapprove.

 

Pilate’s hands are washed clean

Thunder rolls across the sky

She looks down upon the scene

Jesus stumbles asking “why?”

An alternative piece of poetry with an everlasting message...I love this! To see through Magdalene's eyes in this is Resurrection to those of us who truly think this way of religious imagery. Wonderful poem, Dayvid...the passion intermixes with faith...I'm proud to read this poetry...

Love & Crows Feet,
Sage
