-------------Agamemnon-at Aulis------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------By:Epicurus C-----------------------------------------------------------------------"I owe her nothing as she is seen now as vile!" Written by: Epicurus Citium--------------------
Why did you have faith in me?
While in a bleak midwinter
These frozen oceans and sea
As though waves and stutter
Crawls and collapses your nosegay
Arms within arms thrives in you
Thought you would dance along the bay
But you saw pale and got lost its hue
Sulleness heart,the beating heart
Forgots the sound of summers fall
I see the tear from an Agamemnon art
And I remember now your call-
The sleepless night haunt these poor linnet
And the pardon eyes drip the rueful tear
And I travel far and afar till the shadows of bennet
Till I forget you ever by the flower it bear
I gazed into my husband’s eyes.
Eyes once borne by my daughter.
Agamemnon upon Mycenaean soil once more.
I embraced him as a figure crept out of the shadows.
Aegisthus slipped the knife’s hilt silently into my hand.
Agamemnon now forever lay beneath the land.
Aeschylus: "Agamemnon"
A man in exile
Feeds himself on barren hope
Yields to fate in time
Aeschylus: "Prometheus Unbound"
Life's hard lesson
Wrong is shameful in the old
Time instructs us all
Sophocles: "Philoctetes"
Words not deeds rule men
Shaped to meet the moment's need
Waging war with fate
Sophocles: "Antigone"
Courage to choose right
And 'gainst harsh reality
Make no compromise
Aristophanes: "Lysistrata"
Poet's plea for peace
Fair breezes speed us onward
Making love not war
Euripides: "Alcestis"
Time will console you
Walk to the end of old age
The dead are nothing
"Heel"
Another language speaks its truth
one’s truth is another’s war
Agamemnon and his achilles
to heel a virtue
to heal a cause
such an odyssey
styx and stones
Clytemnestra, silent
spartan subdued
a loss, a child
innocence stolen, spilt
on another’s alter for Troy
a loss, a sacrifice,
unfavourable weather
a familiar familial war
gods like mortals
mortals like gods
blood, not water spilt
the Odds,
two sides of a coin
another language speaks its truth
one’s truth is another’s war

Kings of lizards
The great multi-horned beast
A rise in the east,
The prodigal son
Coming in the Fire
Of mythic Agamemnon!
As the beast lay waste to Dominion…
Divinities promise oblivion,
When the engines feast, the King of kings
In the east; arise, HIS son born to none,
We machines are cold and time is old
All within is what was told,
When engines feast..
Of Saints devouring obsidian
the pestilence in oscillations!
Of all my transgressions that are broken
As the engines feast,
They bring the promised one
Becoming something unknown...undone!
Dire arises devise
The Biblical Armageddon.
An atrocity loose
Across state of Ukraine
Annexation Russian
Arms raised in defiance
Against staggering odds
An iron curtain drops
Agamemnon awaits
(Greek Hero Agamemnon Part)
Love has gone for victory
Fate
made the love blind for victory
and slain the innocent heir
oh the game of goddess
the remained love
weaved the hive for another love philter
honey
bitterly sweet in fictitious love!
fate
slain the coming back love
secretly!
the flies,
black flies
made oblige to wear the cloth of repentance
till last breath
for the love
victory
got shy to come back
oh the fate
again came on the hand of innocent rest heir
the sky,
the ground,
the air,
the fire,
the ocean,
all were stained with the fresh slain blood!

Close on the leatherneck well booted, high healed stormy, clip clop,
sans well fashioned faux shod Harvey didst stomp with heavy drop
ping like a furious ogre, and before classes even started
this early September 2017 nature maid maelstrom bid adieu
akin to movements indicative of fiendish flip flop
“he” (as if one could identify gender of said huffing puffing Hurricane,
gave the coast an unforgettable pan hand dilly sock hop
wrought desolation visa vis master card –
carrying uprooted trees like footballs, where whoosh of fury didst lop
many complex edifices plus stately trunked vaunted trees
felled like overworked mop
add where tongue shaped swath comprising Texas got cow licked –
or rather a major pop as if punched from boxing competitor
(already down for the doll finned count)
Hurricane Harvey continued to pounce without letup, and refused to stop
spilling profuse water until the steep pulled tippy top
of many tall buildings barely visible accompanying soundtrack mix
included the Furies of Agamemnon concomitant with ruthless
banshees, daemons, fable come to life monsters
performing corrupt version of do wop.
Troy fell one night three thousand years ago
When Lord Agamemnon led his Achaeans
In a thousand black ships across the Aegean
To breach its walls and to conquer in the glow
From its flames and its fires, ’midst the dead and the dying,
‘Midst the sounds of the crashing and old women crying.
Thus famed Ilios fell, so many years ago.
Troy fell.
And the Scamander ran red and the warriors died.
Agamemnon killed all the men and enslaved the rest,
And laughed with his generals and his high-born guests
While the dead lay in heaps in the streets broad and wide,
While a bard sang of a war both noble and just,
While the towers with a sigh collapsed into dust,
While mortals asked their gods “Why?” and no god replied.
Troy fell.
And the Achaeans sailed home with their plunder and women.
And Troy was silent and the wind blew across her
And buried her walls until the grass grew over,
Until the site of Troy was forgotten by men,
Until Troy lived on in only legend and mist,
Until the ages passed and then, from the depths of Hisarlik,
The lost walls of Troy saw the sunlight again.
At last the fleet sailed into the Trojan delta
shallow waters still filled with wreckage from the siege
Silt from Scamander and Simoeis
building numerous new islands
all anchored on the old refuse
boats were beached and tents were set
animals set free to graze in the Plain
Eager Brutus left the encampment
left behind him, his ships, his Trojans
left behind him, his wife, his squire
so eager was he to see fabled Troy.
Eager was he to see Apollo's angled walls
Eager was he to see Priam's Marbled palace
Eager was he for the home of his ancestor Anchises
Imogen settling into her tent thought about
Brises beloved of Achilles
was he truly husband or just a better master
than Agamemnon or those who had you next.
The Road to Troy was neither winding nor long
Brutus Iulius Trois needed no guide
Born he was in Ascanius's Troy, Lavinium
his youth spent in Helenus's Troy, Chanoia
WHAT`S NUCLEAR WAR
OUT SOULS OF GODDES
LIKE VENUS AND APHRODITE
AND THE POOR HUMANE LIKE RICH AGAMEMNON
IN BLCK COMEDY
WARS LIKE SATANIC HELL TO HUMANITY ALL
YES BUT I NEED THIS WARS ??????????
