Asherah

Mother Goddess
Of Israel
Wife of Yahweh
Fertility Goddess
Mother of the Israelites
Worshiped throughout time

While Israel stood
As a nation
In the homes
Images of Her Divinity
Decorated the houses
The Temples
And
The Shrines

Hosted within
THE Temple of
Solomon
Her image
Carved from Wood
Women wove
Hangings for Her
IN HONOUR
And in forest groves
She the heiress
Consort to the
God most high
Until…
She wasn’t

Monotheistic
Hebrew’s
Of the Israelite
Nation
Chopped down
Banished Her
and burned
Her as a false
Idol

A void left
For Her
Followers
For He IS
A Jealous
God
Indeed

To Allow THIS
To happen
To HIS Wife
By HIS People
And
Watch On

No more useful
Than a cloud
That cannot
Quench thirst
Or feed
The
Ego

Of Man

Yahweh
The mighty
Just god
Is but
A
Useless
God
Of
War
