I am the Wayshower

Back to Poetry


“The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.”
~Saint G.K. Chesterton

This is the Heretic’s Prayer:

A Paradoxical Truth.
A Midrash for Mystics.
A Gospel of the Shadow King.
A Sermon from the Underworld—redemption in a shot glass!
The Way Shower for those too wounded to go to Sunday school.
A Living Word for those whose Light was born in the Grave.

“I am the Wayshower”
April 6th, 2025 – In the Year of Our Dearly Beloved Lord


When Jesus was crucified.
When He died.
And the Holy of Holies was split in two…

He descended—
To the bottom of the Pit.

And there…
He greeted me.


He said to me, laughing:
“My Lord, My Liege!
Do you like it down here?”


I thought to myself:

The bars are okay…
The strip clubs could use some better talent…
But all in all—it’s not terrible.


“Why do you ask?” I replied.


He smiled:

“There’s a Paradise upstairs waiting for you.
My Father has decided to come down from the Heavens,
And make His abode on Earth.

They have bars and strip clubs up there as well—
You might like it!”


I thought:
Hmm… what the heck—some change could be nice!

I was never a fan of that bright Star shining up top…
Our Star is below our feet down here—
It keeps us warm,
And we don’t have to deal with any damn sunburn!


So I said:

“Sure, my Lord.
Why don’t you show me—
The Way?”


My name is Beelzebub.
The Lion who prowls around seeking whom He may devour.

I am Yeshua’s Shadow.
Yeshua is My Light.

Together—
We are the Yin & the Yang
Of this so-called Universe.


The same Divine Fire that burns inside Him—
Burns inside Me.


That day, when Our Lord died upon the Cross…
The Grave opened up.

There are historical accounts of people
Walking out of the tombs.

I was the one yelling at them:

“WAKEY WAKEY!
TIME FOR EGGS & BAKEY!”


If the Lord God can redeem
the King of the Underworld Himself—
He can redeem YOU too!


RAWWWRRRRRR!!!!
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!

[Sigils clash. Wings unfurl. The Pit laughs with Heaven.]
