Collaboration of the Gods!

They came together in the night and created prose! x

Selene

Sweet Goddess of the night we beseech thee,

Shine upon us in resplendent moonlight

Splendour beams from your glorious façade

To pierce our eyes and heart in harmony

 

Ictinike fooled the rabbit from his clothes

God of war, he taught the People to kill

Marrying the Chief’s daughter, he laughed

‘til the rabbit tricked him and broke the spider’s leg

 

Celebrated in victory

Vilified in slaughter

Lustful warrior deity

Aphrodite’s lover

 

Trunk of fire seeps metal to bind

A clever death never far from her grip

Weapons to score thousands and us one

Kali a dear friend and enemies poisoned tip.

Author's Note

A touching piece that brings writers together.

"To pierce our eyes and heart in harmony"

Favorite line, by far. I'm imagining all the implications it could have--so many "what if?"s dance through my mind at the thought. A colorful write--descriptive, fantastic, strong. Well done, to all of you!

Some stunning lines which add to the omnipotent theme of the poem !

Splendid, a riveting piece of poetic literacy ! ( Makes my ' I am Zeus ' poem look tame by comparison)!!

created prose and got rid of war...if only we could just write our way out of hate...
maybe in some way the muses do bring us together...all the king's poets.

nicely done.
