Wandering Jew.

 from the book Waking Up Jesus, a narrative influenced by Jesus lost years, hiding from Herod, with the Buddhists.

Death on a cross

was a jail break from a prison of pure pain

Angels carried me up into the Heavens

for a pure moment  I was a curious warm feeling traveling the universe again

They remind me the time

has come

to 

don another mask 

suffer the flesh

be born again into the endless struggle

fight and love and steer the myths mankind used to describe Him

His life cycles less the Christian coming once and leaving with a vow to come back

more the returning of the mindful Buddha

who reacts on an instinct

stronger than thought:  he must never abandon the suffering

the same instinct that led Buddha from his Kingly garden

to starve under a Bodi tree

until his mind emptied enough 

for the universe to enter
