She stood there
Watching him
Watching over him
She was his savior
His only one
Her mother had not wanted
Another boy
She had just put him
In the river
Just when that woman
Was about to come down
The woman was one of those
Woman of the court
Of Egypt
The daughter of Pharoah
She was the daughter
Of a Hebrew Prince
They were descendant
Of Abraham
The son of Terah
Of Ur
Not Goshen
The land of nothing
But green lush marsh
Great if one is a sheep
She knew they had
Come here in order
To survive a great drought
Thier land had once been
Rich enough to support
Thier flocks
And they had gold on their hands
And shoes on their feet
Now everything
Was upside-down
And backwards
Her little brother
Moses had been put out
By their own mother
Here she came
Down to the river
To worship her gods
What would she do
When she found a baby?
Eat him?
Sacrifice him?
Nothing at all
At first she just bathed
Then she had her perfumes
And expensive oils
Over her flesh
Then her carpets
Were put out
As she was given a massage
At last
She got down
And beg her gods
For insight
What was she to do?
She kept thinking
He was just a mirage
But a baby was there
Floating along the Nile
With no parents
Who would put out their child.
Was it for her ?
Was she never to have
A child of her own?
Was this an omen
Of bad for her people?
Or was it a blessing
Then she waited
While her attendants
Played music
Finally the sun began
To set upon them
They slowly picked
Up everything
Including the infant
She almost missed it
They were so silent
And quick
They took her brother!
She had to run after him
Watching over him
She must have passed out
Here she was at the gates
What did she want?
The infant was not hers.
She was only making sure
He was not going
To be killed and eaten
There she was once more
Standing in the corner
Watching over him.
Watching him
Being given the finest
Foods to finger
And camel milk
To drink
She was so frustrated
Her mother would
Be angry when she did not
Return home
But she was watching over him.
They took it as a good sign
That a jewish infant
Had been offered
To the Pharoahs house
It was abdopted
And raised in the best
Of instructions
Along side the son
Of the pharoah
While the girl
Was provided jobs
To keep her busy
While they waited
To see who would come
It was a crying mother
Jochebed
Who first showed herself
She had lost her daughter
No, No
She did not have a baby
It was forbidden
For them to keep having
Babies in front of the Pharoah
Who had lost so many of them
The Hebrews
Had continued to grow
While the Pharoahs
Personall household
Had grown smaller
Joseph the great dreamer
Had been made second
In the land and given
A pregnant priest daughter
For his pleasure
But now there were
New ones in power
Not even the same
Dynasty
For some reason
No one had sent them home
Back to where they came
From in the desert
They say they were rich
Far more richer
Than the personal income
Of the Pharoah himself.
And they had relatives
Throughout
Better to keep them close
The favored son
Was given as a playmate
For this prince
While the girl was schooled
The mother had lied
About the boy
In order not to break the law
Of no more male infants
They were to be killed
Upon birth
Now they had a bunch
Of women who could
Not carry the weight
Of those huge
Megaliths
But they were small enough
To go through the narrow
Tunnels and could climb
The projects were going
Ahead with this convenience
Besides with so few males
They would now have to marry
Into their people
Making them one and the same
The girl had grown beautiful
And mysterious
Her mother was paid
For her to be trained
In the arts of majic
In the arts of majic
Not something she had wanted
A priests daughter
Would become a prhopetess
They would train her
Now she watched
From the shadows
Over her younger brother
As he was given the best
As the first born son
Of the household of
Pharoah
They hoped to be given
Into by the Arabs
And the Hebrews
To rule over this area
The Mediterreanean
Was important to them
They had grains
To sell in exchange
With those traveling
Along the route
Towards Asia
And Europe
They wanted a monopoly
Meanwhile the family
Had another son
Aaron who was allowed
To the freedom
Of not being a slave
The poor woman
Had not been able
To kill her third child
Most of the others
Kept one girl child
Nearby
While the boys
Were disappearing
Into the fields
On the other side
Now she was old enough
For what they wanted
Miriam
Mary girl of the sea
For that is where
They had first seen her
Standing in the midst
Of the sea
For hours
Without drowning
Thier sea goddess
Mer
She had not realized
Until she began to speak
Thier language
How different they were
They were not cruel
Yet her brother admonished
Her as she spoke to him
In order to not forget
Thier language
He was a trained
Translator
For the Jews
Who needed to speak
To the Egyptians
She had become the wife
Of one of the magic
Practicing priests
They had ways of speaking
To the other world.
She was not there the day
Her brother Moses
Had killed another man
The laws of the land
Were so severe
They could not kill
Another man
Not even the pharaoh
Without proper justice
Assessment and assistance
While the law of making
Sure no more males
Were allowed to be born
Was a direct corruption
She had to do things
For him to make sure
He was not slaughtered
They found out afterwards
That he had been set up
It was not his fault
But now she was married
But could not have children
She had to drink
Nauseating stuff
That made her vomit
And bleed every other month
Until she got to that age
Where she stood watching
The others having babies
She began to think
He would never return
When word came
From the sea
To the south
He was alive and coming home
He was warned
Not to bring his wife
They would have taken
Her away from him
And his sons
He had sons!
They had to stay away
There was an increase of women
That no man was allowed
To go unmarried
Somehow they had misjudged
Now the women
Were being married
To Egyptians
Who agreed to become
Jewish faith
While the Pharoahs
Had sent ships
Out in every direction
There was coming
A time for others
To overtake the position
Of the Hebrews
The plagues upon
Egypt were meant
To bring an end
To the belief
In the Egyptian gods
She was aware of what
They were doing
But knew it would not prevail
Until the son of the pharaoh
Died upon his bed
And not his father
Providing the evidence
That the Pharoah
Was himself not first born
His son should have been
Given training to take over
Instead it had been hidden
He was not the first born
But one of the younger sons
Replacing the rightful hier
If it got out throughout
His own people
Would kill him
His sons death
Meant the end.
The people had become
Useless to them anyways
She saw as she watched
From the shadows
That they had gotten the message
Those ships were coming back
With the new information
That would allow them
To control the entire
Mediterranean sea
Now was the time to get
Rid of them
They were sent away
At last she could emerge
From her place
Her family did not want
To come with her
Her daughter
Wanted to stay
As a priestess of Egypt
Where she would become
Immortal when her time
Came to the end.
While she watched over him
She wished her daughter
Could have married his son
But it was not to be
They switched places
For her the nephews
She kept the first born
To become a priest
Under his uncle Aaron
While the younger one
Would stay with his mother
Becoming a Prince and king
Amongst the Arabs
His line would not disappaer
While she wanted to finish
Performing her duties
As a phropetess
Her husband had to kill
Himself while she watched
Which is why the daughter
Chose to stay with the priest
The magic practices
Were not going to survive
Having failed the Pharoah
Whose life was in danger
And there it was
A sign from the heavens
The parting of the red sea
Was her standing there
Watching over him
And telling them
Now was a good time
Jehovah had listened to her
This time and allowed
The red sea to part
With their victory
She was so exited
She praised the work
Of her brother Moses
He was a great man
Who had gotten the best
Of his own adopted brother
He was now their king
He was going to rule
Her desires got the better of her
As she watched
Everything they had hoped
Come to nothing
But chasing the wind
There were things
That were coming back
On those boats
That would not be known
The plagues had offended
Those in the deserts
Who were not in favor
Of these people
Of Terah of Ur
Who was Jehovah?
She watched again
From the shadows
Until in the end
Her phropecies
Had become so many
And so accurate
That she could not make
A mistake
His going to the mountain
Was an unfair advantage
She wanted to know
What he was doing
It was her right
She had stood over him
She was the one
Chosen to stay and keep him
Safe
She was the one
Who had covered for him
Had sacrificed for him
She not her mother
Was to be credited
For his survival
And rise amongst
The people to this end
He was going to lead
Them all into the new
Kingdom and make them
All immortals
In the shadows
From where she watched
She had begun
To get ahead of her brothers
She wanted to be the female
Deity that they spoke of
Along side thier single god
Her name would be known
As well in the future
And Mary the mother of Jesus
As well as Scotland
Named after Mare Scota
The sister of young Tut
Was immortalized
She saw this in her visions
That these two women
Would make the world
A different place
And there would be others
Named Mary who would
Become Queens
In her darkness
She forgot who she was
Sending her sister in law
Away because she was
The one to reign supreme
Of all the priests daughters
And priestresses
She was now going
To become a leader of her own
Her followers of thsoe
Many women who had gone
Without a Hebrew husband
Had to give up thier sons
In order to satisfy the law
Of the Pharoah
Made them bitter
Against Jehovah
Allowing the others
To have sons
They wanted their sons
She had been approached
She herself missed her own
Unborn sons
She decided to provide
Evidence it was her
From the shadows
Who was the real communicator
With Jehovah the god of the Jews
His wrath was severe
Her demand to bring
To life their dead sons
Was to great a demand
Aaron and Moses
Had been lead along
By her their only
Reminder of the mother
Who had not lived long
After her losing both her children
As a unit
They had forgotten
That they served Jehovah
Not the Miriam and her magic
For she had brought
It with her
Teaching the women
To become witches
In order to protect
From the shadows
Not the desired result
And she had gone against
The rules and laws
He had to put her death
Himself, Jehovah
Her strength was more than
The priests of the Hebrews
Only a few women
Can go that dark
Candace is another one of them
The sadness of the brothers
Who realized their desire
To become rulers
Over their own people
Was not going to happen
Having been raised
Along side the Egyptians
When the Jews were provided
A king he was not a god
As well nor have the ability
To contend with his angels....
