St. Michael on my wrist.
St. Michael and the Archangel (aa.) Michael are interelated entities. the name "miccah-elohim" means "who is like god?", and is the war cry of heavenly angels when the final battle of good vs. evil is fought. it is a taunt to the Devil as well, a rhetorical challenge to belittle Satan.
st's role was to fight a dragon. aa's role was to fight the dragon in Revealation; the one with 7 heads and 10 horns, the one with evil angels, and thrown down from Heaven subsequently. aa appears in islam, christianity and judaism, always rankin 2nd to the Host.
it might be because of his rank and sweetness (mt sweet, not storebelly sweet) that i have an interest in him. or maybe because one of the most influential people in my life has been a certain Bro. Michael. or that i love MT. he's on my wrist as a reminder and an avatar of my conscious conscience. to remind me of what i believe in, in every aspect of the word 'believe'. to stop me from sinning, to keep at bay the evils in me. in this pendant ive imbued all the values i trust and hold dear, though far from uphold them.
pray, sometimes it's the only thing we can do. then pray it's not the only thing.
