Season of Myths

SEASON OF MYTHS Inspired, but unlike all the rest Driven, with a burning fervour So determined to begin a quest Not as a dispassionate observer Assumed the mantle of a sleuth With research and detective skills Discover kernels of hidden truth Once the source of worldly ills Buried deep in a lost prehistory A heady mixture of fact and fable Decoding and revealing mystery From artefacts laid on the table Led further into darker reaches Where surprises live in gloom What every wise man teaches Stay focused and in the room The false trails and obfuscation Exposing challenges to ability Even to maintaining motivation Carrying a heavy responsibility My key discoveries made at last As more evidence is analysed Slowly teased out from the past Academics will be so surprised
