Eanna The New Baby

Eanna the new baby

a new brain

this boy within a girl

same old soul

from the darkness seeking the light

carrying the story of the phoenix

full of wrath and seeking justice

remembering year 75

wondering the whereabouts of fellow women

Together tied up with all sorts of fires

locked inside the cave

spat upon and labelled prostitutes and witches

swindled by "saviours"

wisdom and knowledge went with the wise

That was the darkest era

blindfolded and confused

a boy within a girl

the soul on fire

one day is one day

We shall be free

and heed to the new land

the land of honey and milk

that was the promise!

is this the promised land?

it can't be!

same procedure as seventy-five?

goats and lambs slaughtered daily for the "gods"?

what choice do I have

I can't sleep at night

I can't enjoy my food

I am full of loneliness

No one understands me

my preacher does not get it

my healer does not see it

my church encourages me to pray

I have fasted and prayed

I am "born again" isn't it?

my sins were carried away, isn't it?

How come no one is listening or receiving my prayers?

who is going to save me and when?

the punishment is too much!

it is like the more I put in an effort the more I suffer...

I long to go to a faraway place

to the place beyond those hills

maybe I should follow the sun?

will the Sun listen to me?

will the sun see through me?

I think He can

after all, he has been there?

through all the lifetimes

from country to country

from one continent to another

rising and rising every morning

he knows the whole story.

I shall set my eyes to the mountains of the east!

this is where my salvation should come from

He knows everything about me

The Truth and the lies he knows

Have you ever exhausted all the plans and your intellect?

do empty yourself!

an empty room and a clean slate

that is what is needed

self-sacrifice!

Genuine Devotion and remembering of the past mistakes

acknowledging the past sin and clearing it.

one day, I shall tell you the story of the sun!

now let me go deeper into my unconsciousness

The Old Temple in Uruk I see

whereby I and my folks used to sacrifice the poor lambs and goats

ninety lambs in a single day what type of a thirsty God is this one?

isn't it the same practice?

what positive changes did I make?

maybe because I have reduced the number of sacrificial lambs?

sacrificing is sacrificing, is not it?

blood is blood size does not matter

the fact remains I am spilling the blood

in this so-called promised land

it looks like I am back to my old ways

and my wrath is increasing daily

either I am in the wrong land or I have to change my ways!

tell this broken soul oh beautiful shining Sun

how do you deal with all the acts of inhuman you have been witnessing daily?

How do you deal with the oppressors, abusers and obnoxious humans?

do you even deal with them or do you just ignore them?

are you even paying attention or you are just shining up there?

please teach me how to be like you...

I want to experience the laughter, the joy and the light.

I want my authentic self back

before tokoloshe was made, I was happy

before muthi was discovered I was happy

before witchcraft was discovered I was happy

I am in dire need of authentic spiritual connection

I want to be the King of my life like in the year one

I want to lay a new foundation now

the foundation based on the Truth, love and light

I want my old temple back changed for my peace

The New Eanna

the one without pain or wrath

the one that does not require any sacrifice

Arise oh Eanna-The Temple of Light and Wisdom

Arise and cleanse the souls of your lost Gods

Arise and Torch for your Gods

arise and lay your new strong foundation

Promise yourself to never ever repeat those mistakes again!
