A Feminine Revenge
For I am the female animus
of God, swept down from a blue,
Arcadian sky to quell the raging hordes
of heathen men - in whose
shadows I’ve dwelt since birth -
one shattered corpse and role at a time.

Always bemused me how God & Jesus are men. Though I sure some religious scholar will have all the answers (they always do!) and condemn us all to Hell or Hello Magazine (a fate such as bad).
Like the tight structure of this in six lines and food for thought. Sometimes wonder if the roles we play in everyday living are pre-destined or we are, merely, servile to Freudian forces.

He’s not a religious scholar, but Harold Bloom wrote a book in which he theorised that large chunks of the Bible were written by a woman. The Shadow of a Great Rock. I keep meaning to read it again.
As for me, my feminine side was so brutally repressed when I was young that it’s only starting to come out (so to speak) more honestly now.

I love this. I love exploring the darker feminine archetypes. A woman with too much power and rage *chef's kiss*
