Em Hotep
I have explored the ravaged ruins of your smile.
The lost culture of your thoughts.
The conquered lands of your soul... tilled with salt.
The forgotten use of your mason's tools... now broken and scattered.
I have learned what rough invader settled there;
who taught you these tongues of possession... of destruction.
I know who left you fallen, scattered, cracked to dust.
I have walked where you crawled;
felt the broken pieces underfoot... sieved your sands.
I have collected all that remains;
disturbed your dead who look back at me through soil caked eyes.
I have sifted through you.
Compiled you, until your shards are mine and
discovered it is not all that they have left of you.
And now I know you... and can call you home.

Nuk pu Heru-em-heb. Nuk pu neter.
Nuk pu Ast. Nuk neter aa kheper tchesef.
Ba ar pet sat ar ta.
Nuk uab-k uab ka-k uab bak- uab sekhem.
Nuk ast ua neheh ertai-nef tetta.
Sekhem-a em mu ma aua Set.
Rex-a em Ab- a sekhem- a em hati- a.
Un- na uat neb am pet am ta. Nuk sah em ba-f.
Nuk pu neter... Nuk pu Heru-em-heb.
Translated and embellished slightly by Seme' Heru-em-heb.
I am Horemheb. I am the great god, self created.
I am Isis. Soul is of heaven, body belongs to the earth.
My mind has pure thoughts, so my soul and life forces are pure.
Behold, I am heir to eternity, everlastingness has been given to me.
I have gained power in the water as I have conquered Set.
I know my heart, I have gained power over my heart.
The power is within me to open all doors of heaven and earth.
I am spirit, with my soul.
I am HOREMHEB.

TODAY'S SUBLIMINAL THOUGHT IS:

The Sphinx
The marble image came alive, began to moan and plead
She drank my burning kisses up, with ravenous thirst and greed.
She drank my breath from out my breast, she fed her lust without a pause;
She pressed me tight and tore and rent... my body with her claws.
(Excerpt from Buch der Lieder, Heinrich Heine, 1939).
An Ancient Egyptian Love Poem
Oh! when my lady comes, and I with love behold her,
I take her to my beating heart and in my arms enfold her;
My heart is filled with joy divine
For I am hers and she is mine.
Oh when her soft embraces, do give my love completeness,
The perfumes of Kemet, anoint me with their sweetness:
And when her lips are pressed to mine
I am made drunk and need no wine.
(Middle Kingdom).
"Look! Your brave struggle to become acquainted with our spirit, our olden life, gives me pain. Will it ever succeed? The dead letter, the lifeless hieroglyphic, mocks your weak intellect. Come, I will show it to you."
"It is a dream," I said, thoughtfully, as he caught hold of my hand.
"And if it should be a dream, would it be less beautiful?"
... From, conversation between
the young god Horus
and the unnamed Egyptologist
(Max Uhlemann: Three Days in Memphis,
or Sketches of the Public and Private
Life of the Old Egyptians, 1858)
