The Rev'd David Parry presents: Anglo Saxon Poetry by Andrew Rae

I was a Director at The People's Voice (Internet TV Station) for a while - all giving me the chance to produce 10 of these poetry shorts.

As you will see, they were eventually released under the Inlight TV imprint, due to that fact TPV got into serious trouble.

Editor's note:

SMPBI calls for the misappropriation of Culture by the Middle Class to be ended, and for the reunification of the People with our Traditions - our Living Traditions.  Culture belongs to us, and like everything else, has been stolen from us and claimed by the bourgeois parasites.  We are bringing it back to the People.  Without an anchor in our origins and history, we are adrift on the sea of Commercialised Globalism.  Our struggle cannot be solely economic.  We have been robbed of nearly all that is ours. We will not stop until we have taken back everything, and built a better way which prevents the class of thieves from ever stealing from us again.

The Rev'd David Parry - Odinism & The Tradition of Dissent

A fascinating speech. David talks about  the revival of the natural religion of Heathenry as a potent weapon for opposing corporate globalisation,.  A return to nature - to the Pagan Heathenry - as a means of moving away from the Globalised Monotheism which is the justification of Capitalist Exploitation and the Hierarchical Class System.

David was a universal lay minister and while spending over 30 years in Pagan practice and studies he became one of the few Heathen Godies in the UK and is also a Gardinerian Wicca initiate and recently a Valentinian (Gnostic) Bishop.

In the following podcast for THA Talks he will speaks about his experiences and knowledge from Ancient Paganism, Christianity and gnosticism.

Originally this was added as a youtube video, but the video has been taken down.  This does seem to be a recurring issue, which highlights that David is talking about matters which ruffle the feathers of the self-appointed liberal bigots.  Obviously a good thing!!

DavidParry: The Grammar of Witchcraft - Selected Readings

The Grammar of Witchcraft

In this collection of Mini-Sagas and poems, Parry narrates the final journey taken by his alter ego Caliban from the surreal delights of a lesbian wedding in Liverpool, all the way back to a non-existent city of London. In himself, the author is aiming to resolve lyrical contradictions existing between different levels of consciousness: betwixt reality and the dreaming state. And as such, unnervingly illogical scenarios emerge out of a stream of consciousness wherein bewildering theatrical landscapes actively compete with notions of Anglo-Saxon witchcraft, Radical Traditionalism, and a lack of British authenticity. Each analysis pointing towards those Jungian Spirits haunting an endlessly benevolent Archetypal world.
