Hermes
Nile stretches towards the horizon
In the Valley of the Kings pyramids have arisen
But before pyramids were at the Nile basin
And even before Ra had head of a falcon
The Egyptian Hermes divine scribe
The Gods themselves would describe
And spawn their tribe
And flesh and blood copy of world’s soul he would transcribe
The spider web of intricacies is full
Same can be said of writing as a tool
It is important because it can express ideas in full
But writing is linear for which our limited minds are thankful
But as Hermes’s orb cascades like waterfall
The cascades create nonlinear and beyond soul
And unlike everything on Earth not from down up but top down the soul will fall
And Hermes knows high end nonlinear philosophically largest number of all
