Absent Minded
Rock Garden of saints
I was at this rock garden
and every rock had a fascinating shape
upon closer examination
upon inspection
each rock was in the shape of a saint
a biblical figure
a prophet or an apostle
There was a sign
and the sign said
there was rock in the Garden that looked like Elvis
People came from near and far
to search through the rocks
looking for the elvis rock
i went there and filled up my pockets
runes of saints
runes of prophets
each rock a new meaning of biblical meaning
and here i am the new aged witch
flipping through thew quotes in the bible
and all my history books to create my new oracle
But i left the elvis rock for them to fight over
What would judas do?
what would jesus do?
what would david say?
each rock with a little book for when i pick it out of thew bag
a reason to play biblomancy
with methods to the madness
and study further
searching for answers i never knew
to fill my head with good things of word association
here i am avoiding the rock of satan
and now i know
now i understand
the symbolism of this book
because of this rock garden
and with these rocks
i can make many more bags of themes of rocks
and names and manuals and books to go with them
and teach life lessons
quotes to ponder
psychology to question or examine
and now ive just invented
a christian bag of runes
and the witches zodiac will never compete
with the controversy
of divination meets christianity
and gods will be done
and every rock had a fascinating shape
upon closer examination
upon inspection
each rock was in the shape of a saint
a biblical figure
a prophet or an apostle
There was a sign
and the sign said
there was rock in the Garden that looked like Elvis
People came from near and far

looking for the elvis rock
