The Enemy Is Salvation
“And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.” Genesis 6:7 KJV

The Enemy Is Salvation belongs to the following groups:
Core [C.O.R.E], Current Issues, LEFT WING VALUES AND POSITIVE GLOBAL AWARENESS, Politics, Race, Sexuality and Culture and Up & Coming WritersThe earth is flat
God hates everyone
Except his profit prophets
Who pontificate
About who God hates
And why He hates us
But God is love
And He will love you
If you hate what He hates
Self hate is God love
God is your enemy
The Enemy is salvation
God made is man made
Sol circles Terra
Terra is flat and hollow
Like their hearts
Filled with God’s love
and God’s hate
Enoch left for 300 years
He returned to teach
And in the end died too
Prophets for profit
God’s profiteers
Hate-Love preachers
Hungry hearts
Eager ears
Filthy mouths
Digest the hate cakes
Baked in Your temples
And defecate prophecy
For God so loved the world
He destroyed it
Sodom and Gomorrah too
Fire burned them
Water drowned them
The babies and the old
The Universe continues
With and without you
Thirty pieces of silver
Paid for Your demise
And You extract your price
In blood
Vengeance is Yours
Suffering is ours
Death to the creation
Created with love
God is your enemy
The Enemy is salvation
God please teach me
To love what You hate
To shun what You love
And to be a better
human being
than what You have created

Heeheeeheee, naughty and well written. I like it a lot.
H M Bascom replied
Thank you my friend. :-)
theyellowfury
You’re welcome. If something I imagined became as popular I suppose I’d be happy, at least for a while until they started misinterpreting it to gain money or power or just through plain stupidity.
Gregory John O...
If God created man in Its’ image then It is a paranoid schizophrenic with delusions of grandeur..
Nice read Helen !!
H M Bascom replied
Ha! Excellent observation.

Bravo Helen – this is awesome and I am speechless -
except that if there is a God somebody ought to retire him.
H M Bascom replied
I retired him from my life a long time ago. xoxo
bdazzled
Yeah – me too :o)

Great piece! We have just one life to live and I’ll be damned if mine will be spent following a fairy tale.
H M Bascom replied
Thanks! I’m in full agreement with you
Jane17
Great piece-to be better then we we’re created.. I also agree with the comment made by Gregory about man in gods image: a paranoid schizophrenic w/ delusions of grandeur.. lol.. I hope there is meaning to all this and lean towards being hopeful, but God really dished us out some challenges in the psychology department and the illusionary nature of reality-pretty intense..
H M Bascom replied
Thanks for reading! To be better than we are created is a very grand ideal. I try, but I am – afer all – only a human being. :-)
Wendy Slee
You write it so well.
And we could all aspire to truly find the truth of who God is and where God is….. and by starting with yourself…. you are far closer than most people!!!
H M Bascom replied
Inside us – I think. :-)
Wendy Slee
When my kids ask what God looks like or where he is…. I tell them to go stand in front of the mirror…
and look deep into their own eyes…..
(I remember the first time I did this….Solomon was only quite little and he stared and stared and then he got all excited and yelled at the top of his voice “I can see him!!! I can see him!!! He is in there and he has lots of camels!!!”)
LOL
H M Bascom replied
ROFLOL What a wonderful story! My little Malcolm senses the energy of the Universe within himself too. How wonderful children are!
Wendy Slee
maybe that should have read “where HE/SHE is…..” lol
Matt Penfold
Jeezus Helen… ;-)
H M Bascom replied
Ha! ;-)
Isa Rodriguez
haaaaa. you are incredible…... i dont agree. but you are something else and love you to pieces for it. ..this is def great writing
H M Bascom replied
It’s cool to disagree. But did you click the links? Those are some pretty hateful “Christians” out there. The poem is really not about “God” but his/her/its “Christians” here on good ol’ planet Earth. :-) Thank you for reading and for the great compliment. xoxo
Isa Rodriguez
i do have to say though. God is a great poet .
Isa Rodriguez
you bet. im going to the links:).. i abhor all of these freaks. every single faith has these kinda freaks /bullies/violent/evit/ mongrels// . blecccccccccccccch ..thanks hun , you always are so complete in your art , it is so very good to come to a work of yours always
H M Bascom replied
Thank you Isa. Everything in context – that is key to understanding. Love ya girl! xoxo

JaneSolomon
haha! well written my feisty friend…..I thought we were made in God’s image…..something went wrong with the recipe somewhere…..or then again perhaps not….;-) xx
H M Bascom replied
Perhaps . . . God is made in our image? :-)
