jesus: whether you believe he is

the son of god or just a lot of people’s deceiving wish

to live beyond being this — seeing as the season ’tis

it’d not be remiss to give thought to what jesus is

saying that jesus is a myth is not a jesus diss —
jesus did exist — a myth doesn’t mean a fib —

a myth’s a type of meaning that gives speech to our deepest pits

of self — bits objective speech is weakest in dealing with

religious meaning isn’t mutually exclusive —

there are many beats in the music that truth is —

there’s truth to the buddhists, the druids, the jewish kid

newborn with presents. there’s precedents for who he is

some believe christ is derived from dionysus

the freak greek god of vines and deep wine sips —

born of mortal virgin, and from zeus’ divine thigh; this

and in some versions, he dies — eaten by giants

even god dies, for god is inside us
imbibed dionysus, divided osiris

and yet life re+arises, both timely and timeless

fresh from the nothingness, the night from which light slips

— it’s the speeches on god’s lip:

the word, greek, logos — john’s gospel got it

from a neoplatonic philosophical concept:

god is the divine logic; he called christ its embodiment

god can get born and ever gets re+born

a process of chaos graced with the free form

of finitude, from infinites refurbished and fresh

+n+logically referred as the word made flesh

— but that’s complicated. to phrase it the easiest:
this world needs a force that embraces the neediest

and gives them a course and a means for their seizing bliss

regardless what caesar says, whoever the caesar is

and this is the myth that’s the oldest and truest

the source of our faiths, and of our revolutions:

all things pass away — but from them come new ones

god just got born — god is you — it’s a human

it doesn’t need to be a matter of belief

as of the aspects of divinity that history has weaved

in its tapestry, traditions and religions rolling deep

in our consciousness, concepts inwoven like a wreath

so whether you’re atheist or deeply religious

however your savior is conceived or envisaged

let each day be a new birth and a crisp gift —

live your best truth and to you merry christmyth
