Calliope and the Seraphim.A Poem by outlandishCalliope Zeus daughter the muse of poetsSweet Calliope daughter of Zeus and muse of all
poet souls, whispers quiet and incessantly in language flame to mortal souls Calliope she walks the labyrinth of poets’ dreaming
realities, scattering pearls and shards and shades of inspiration before her
that trail back to first word origins, first spark that created musings. Great Homer’s chosen handmaiden muse sits before
the rain stained windows and on the mountain tops, everywhere and nowhere for
those that lack a soul fire burning. Sweet daughter of Zeus hides behind storm nimbus
clouds and rides the chariot sun; she is found in dark pit places among the
living and long done. Sacred daughter spin your web of sublime inspired word,
you’ve spanned the tyranny of spoken time, a lyric trail a trove dust cornucopia
of words have swirled far behind you. In torrents
and forgotten rivulets, you’ve passed and supped the spirit whole domain of unchained
dreamers prose, in gilded words so elegant told they comfort in connection in
feelings of, I am not alone. Ghost Seraphim burns white hot in the cauldrons of
the heavens and casts molten flame schisms upon the huddled kneeling masses. The high exalted Seraphim travels celestial skies
and vantages the mortal spiral flame humanity pursuing great trivia’s, traumas,
lusts and puddle deep desire. But only blessed Calliope the gatekeeper of the
word can muse in all who cast visions inwardly, the mysterious interplay in divinely
crafted words. © 2014 outlandish |
