The Ten Commandments of Thou Shall Not and Thou Shall
1. Thou Shalt have no God or Gods but of your own free choice, and shall not impose yours upon others. When thou is forced to have one or enforces others to have as such, no thing will have thee.
Thou Shall be free in choice.
2. Thou Shalt not make any idol that you cannot be, or anything into a likeness beyond its capacity in heaven or on earth or below. You shall only bow to those who you lovingly serve, for though they may be a jealous God, the sins of the parents and of the children are only theirs which they shall answer for. Yet I lavish a thousand loves upon the generations whether they love and obey me or not. Thou Shalt be neither Lord and Master of anything but of thyself, and never a Slave to anyone or anything, but always a Servant freely to those that thou freely serve.
Thou Shall be free in thyself.
3. Thou shalt not take the power of the Words in vain. For the Words are Lord and Lady and when taken in vain the very veins are taken in vain.
Thou Shall be of Words.
4. Remember the Septuplet, to keep it holy. Of Seven days shall you be of labour and of each Seven days shall you rest to make up One day. For in seven days was six days work done and an amount to One day to rest in Heaven and the Earth and the Sea.
Thou Shall be of work and of rest.
5. Honour your Ancestors, both of birth and of nature, that your days be long in the landless realm they bequeath to you. And Honour the Ancestors of others, and the Descendants of all. For all Land is a spendid thing to which no One will have dominance.
Thou Shall be of Ancestry and of Descendants and of thy own.
6. Thou Shalt not kill, and when you kill your life is forfeit even if thou killed in self-defence. For to kill is to be bereft of all that is on this plane and deprive others of the bounty of this plane. Yet thyself shall never willfully be bereft of this plane or of these things through self-killing.
Thou Shall be of this plane.
7. Thou Shalt not commit adultery. Love the one you are with or find one to be with who you will love. Thou shall instead Love all and tolerate those that thou cannot come to Love.
Thou Shall be of Love.
8. Thou Shalt not steal, to increase your coin or your goods or deprive others of goods or coin. Instead give what you can to those who are without so to steal their sorrow and poverty. Which thy Lord will then steal from thou and begone from this plane. Thou Shalt not be of only the material.
Thou Shall be your own goods and coin and services and words and and knowledge and wonder.
9. Thou Shalt not knowingly bear false witness, for Love and Truth conquer all in their path yet Falsity is forver stalking and must be driven out and away.
Thou Shall be of Truth.
10. Thou Shalt not Covet for anything of thy neighbour, of thy family, of thy friends, or of thyself but be content with what thou has and work for what thou wants. Thou Shall then as One People have all that was needed in the past earned all that was wanted in the present and dreamed for all in the future.
Thou Shall be of thyself and of many.
Thou Shall be free in choice.

long read, I could see nothing new from the first 10, the seed of the 7 comes from the 1st, pride. this seemed very 1st like in judgement, who knows how big the picture is? being a vet, I no longer carry the shame of my blooded hands, truth, I'd eat my own brother so death would pass by me for a bit longer....when the chips are down fear makes people do strange things, this is what this poem touched in me...vart@rt

These are completely based upon the 10 Commandments, but with ammendments to make it more non-Religious/ non-Christian friendly. With a further 'Thou Shall' after each one to sound positive and not dogmatic.
