Bastet

The ancient Egyptians had it right

holding sacred the feline's might

Right now to this very day

there are those who bow and pray

To my favorite mythic creature

A cat head is her finest feature

Bast or some call her Bastet

She may be a kitty but she's no pet.

It's said Bastet can change her form

From human to a cat reborn

Goddess of birth and warrior fierce

Her sharp blade won't fail to pierce

Egypt's enemies big or small

Bast can stalk them til they fall

With dignity of a cat she walks

With wisdom of a God she talks.

Rumors say my goddess is seeing

The Gate to the Underworld's guardian

With the head of a jackal you can't miss

The hot Egyptian God, Anubis.
