Zeus's Tombstone.

A Poem by Josh Wesey

                             " Quomodo Deus hic est terminus sursum mortuus est? "
                                                            Rivalry,
                                                   Struggle for power,
                                 Jealousy  brews round Zeus's own companions;
                             brothers battle him for control over the walls of Olympus!
                   Hermes races towards the South to appeal to the Oracle to release the Titans,
                                                  The Mountains Clash!
                   Poseidon Deus trahit ad terram fixerat, et redundant fluctus ejus gloriosum
                                                            Alas!
                        Ares himself drives the spear of thick bloodshed through his spine!
                                               Zeus yells in unimaginable pain.
                                         Deep in the dark walls of the under world 
                        Hades chuckles on his throne as the self eradication of the gods begin.
                 The corpse of Hercules himself lay battered in the bottom of the red sea.
                                           Apollo seizes the light of the Sun.
                                                        Hark! Hark!
     Now the lands of the earth unite in darkness and no human shall witness the murder of the king.
