I want to get straight
about them.
Three sets:
daughters of St. Anne,
the Mary’s that were present at the crucifiction,
and the ones present at the tomb.

St Anne gave birth to two
different Mary’s:
THE Mary,
who danced with her feet,
raised in the Temple
so her feet would not touch the ground—
this Mary had to leave
when she started menstruating.
Then she got pregnant, and we know
the rest of the story.

Besides Mary Mother of God,
there were Mary of Cleopas (or Clopas),
and Mary Salome.
These Mary’s were all half sisters—
had different fathers.

So who the hell was Clopas?
Some guy Mary’s half sister Mary married.
And Mary Salome—she was present
at the tomb, but not the crucifiction?
So is it that all the sisters were at the tomb but not the crucifiction?
That would mean that Mary Magdalen was not at the tomb.
That seems wrong.

Mary Magdalen is my favorite.
Mary Salome was the wife of
Zebedee
and the mother of James and John—
James sometimes thought to be Jesus’s brother,
even his twin—
it’s confusing.

Mary Salome’s name was probably
actually Mary Shulamith,
so she’s the one Antschel is refering to:
ashen hair Shulamith
as we shovel a grave in the air there
you won’t lie too cramped.

Anyway, Shulamith was at the
tomb,
Mary Shulamith,
mother of James twin of Jesus.
Black milk of daybreak.

But now what about the Marys
at the Crucifiction? In the Gospel:
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his Mother, and the Mother’s sister, Mary of Clopas, and Mary Magdalen.
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his Mother, and the Mother’s sister, Mary of Clopas, and Mary Magdalen.
And in the Gospel of Philip:
There were those who always walked with the Lord: Mary, the mother, and her sister, and Magdalen, the one who was called his companion.
His mother, her sister (now), and his companion
were each a Mary.
There were those who always walked with the Lord: Mary, the mother, and her sister, and Magdalen, the one who was called his companion.
His mother, her sister (now), and his companion
were each a Mary.
I’m going to say
that Mary Clopas and Mary Shulamith were the same person.
So all the Mary’s were both at the crucifiction and at the tomb:
Mary, her sister Mary Shulamith,
and Mary Magdalen.
that Mary Clopas and Mary Shulamith were the same person.
So all the Mary’s were both at the crucifiction and at the tomb:
Mary, her sister Mary Shulamith,
and Mary Magdalen.
Mary Magdalen was called Jesus’s
companion.
She was Jesus’s sexual parter, his lover,
and also the Sophia,
the fallen and redeemed
soul of the world.
