0 Shakeepuddn Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Interesting and well-thought out analysis MM. I think that particular style however, where each line contains a cryptic word play to support the same term, is common for another poster on this board, not me. The lines and stanzas taken as a whole support the answer, with many word clues thrown in for good measure : ) Of note: This is not a mundane item. It is a unique X with a very specific name with which some younger members here may be unfamiliar. Some research might be required. And just to be clear, nothing right so far. Good luck!

0 Guest Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Erm i Know I'm crazy....Greek Gods/History Pagan is my type and title - People used to worship the Greek Gods and maybe they still do? So i assume it could be some form of religion Jesus my first born, - Now it was said the the Greek Gods had kids with mortals etc i.e Achilles, Jason, Heracles(Hercules) Perseus etc. Muted in His lordly pain - They would have to suffer - Athena beat Posiedon and the city was named after her. Zeus was caught in a Golden net and humilated after being a bad leader etc. From Lamb was golden shorn. The story of the Golden Fleece At my feet upon the stone - Battles fought etc. Prometheus was tied up to a stone for eternal punishment..... Where heaven’s light has bowed - Th culture has been everywhere (if you understand what i am trying to say) Are written in the hands of men - Scars? I had an idea, forgotten though :S Glyphs to claim a crowd. Greek architecture East to West where marks the best Greece located in the East and came before Roman time (located in the West) Of those who first unspoken - heroes etc. Paved the way for those today Built things, fought things and inspire people etc. Who capture hearts oft broken. - People fall in love with the heroes. I know, I know. I've done this for no reason and it's wrong. But hey, at least i had a shot right? And please don't make judgements....

0 Guest Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Oh... I think I have it now It is either stars, which as already been said... so I'm going with constellations or astrology. It all fits with that. The stars are with the heavens, the star for Jesus' birth. Glyphs to claim a crowd are our zodiac signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stars are with the heavens, the star for Jesus' birth. Glyphs to claim a crowd are our zodiac signs. Astrology/Zodiac, for sure. Constellations might be a bit too close to "Heavenly". Jesus is a Capricorn. =P And I think you nailed it with "Glyphs to claim a crowd" The second stanza might detail the newspaper and how the horoscope is written by men. The third stanza is likely the adaption of the horoscope from Eastern cultures. Nice, Chad. =P A very overarching answer.

0 Shakeepuddn Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Graumen's Chinese Theater East meets west ("type" is style and "title"-- Chinese is pagan in all ways) At its feet are the stars of Hollywood fame. It opened with the premiere of Demille's "King of Kings" about the crucifiction of Christ. Well done gentlemen. And yes, I don't understand why Plasmid didn't hammer the nail into this one AND BAM!!

Question
Shakeepuddn
(Minor edit)
Pagan is my type and title
Jesus my first born,
Muted in His lordly pain
From Lamb was golden shorn.
At my feet upon the stone
Where heaven’s light has bowed
Are written in the hands of men
Glyphs to claim a crowd.
East to West where marks the best
Of those who first unspoken
Paved the way for those today
Who capture hearts oft broken.
