Collaboration of the Gods!
A Poem by
Thomas Fitzgerald
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.

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!

Next time you guys want to do a piece about the Olympian gods, you should include Hypnos. He is an expert on them.
I love when great writers come together like this...the result is always a delectable read...and this is no exception. Great job, guys!!

You've mixed the mythology/religion of many cultures here in a fine tapestry of story telling regarding trickery and death that echoes throughout the stories of the world. Well done.
