Why ‘The Wizard Of Oz’ Is the Greatest Religious Movie: a poem
So
Dorothy
That BITCH
like every human found herself in situations well beyond her control.
The tornado
the house
dropping on wicked witch of wherever
And people
trying to define her because of that.
Some branded her a hero for killing the witch.
Some a murderer.
But she was looking for something else.
A path to enlightenment.
And once she found it.
She kept on it.
She kept walking that yellow brick road.
In hopes of meeting someone greater than herself.
Someone who could answer all of her questions.
She kept on that path
She really believed.
And along the way.
She discovered herself.
She found friends she found courage and intelligence and what that other thing was.
She did that.
She defeated her fears.
She defeated the witch.
And then she finally landed in Oz
She discovered that her God was false.
He was no God.
But woah by then she had transcended all of that.
She had outgrown
the need
of looking for something greater
than herself
to answer her questions.
She found those answers within herself.
And so even though her God was false.
Her path was righteous.
And she attained.
Nirvana.
It is always the journey is it not.
Nobody could take that away from her.
Follow your yellow brick road
