The tears of Poseidon

The tears of Poseidon

A Poem by A.h. Long

Their necks elastic in stupor,
while gazes crawl pathetically
Toward a primitive fire;
Ignited by the fumbling hands
Of toddling
resurrectors
Slaves of the heat
Their true worship
A Triumph of evolutionary ecstasy
Their mouths pour like the
Floods over Atlantic pantheons
Swirling into the mesmerizing abyss
With Minds glued to their silent
Jewels.

I like the strong imagery you create. I can't really remember the story of Poseidon right now I should look it up but I love the phrases you use like "of toddling resurrectors" and "evolutionary ecstasy." Aslo the visual of mouths pouring like floods over Atlantic pantheons is so cool. Very interesting read!
