ninth poet, poet dedication series, Emma Lazarus
Through Time's mesmerizing and meandering paths,
Colossus of heroic worship rightly praised,
He that vented his strength and fought with half-god wrath;
Mighty Son of Zeus, his feats that this world amazed,
Carved in stone, sculptor Vincenzo de’...

Hera his mother jealous of him
Had left him in the woods to expire
Hidden and fed from Minerva’s nipple
He is imbued with strength
Hence “The Strongest of all Gods”
His twelve labors a penance fulfilled...

HerculesYou should see my little pug.
He loves to play and sit on his rug.
He's quite a little guy
the apple of my eye.
He's so smart too
the things he does would amaze you.
He loves to nuzzle my neck and chin.
He is so sweet I can't help but...

Ain'T No Hercules
The Son of God
ain’t no Hercules,
Jesus Christ
ain’t no Greek myth story
His crucifixion
is real as real can be
And His resurrection
is a gospel tale
the whole world continues to read
The feats of Hercules
is a made up story
The miracles of Jesus Christ
multiplies,
and continues to feed
The Son...

Dramatic Verse
Hercules and Adonis Serenade DevoutHercules was serenading his sweetie from a wobbly willow chair.
His melodic notes of love swoon floated mightily in the air.
His voice was on fire today, all the females better watch out.
Serenading a sisterly trio – Ms. Meow, Ms. Prayer and Ms. Devout.
What are you yowling...

Always nice to be away
From people like you
Who are stressing me apart,
Don’t you think so?
Whatever,
Just in time.
I was thinking deeply about
All that happened in my life,
Since I met you, I will never forgive,
It hurts too much,
Hope this party will remove such thoughts.
Have a great time,

The Stephen Hercules Shaw Memorial BenchStephen Hercules Shaw
Much loved, much missed
Born the same year as you.
I rest on the bench
your mother bought,
your brother bought,
your friends bought,
to remember
and slowly forget.
The ducks half swim, half skate
Over the half-frozen half-winter lake
as...

The Migthy Power of Herculeswhat
Jezebel who lived
upon
the
ancient biblical world
her
green eyes, makeup
wearing a black velvet dress
and ruby red shoes
deceived and betrayed
the
supernatural power and strength
of
the
mighty Hercules
while
shearing
the
locks of hair
that
rest
upon
his graceful head
thus
unlocking
the
secret of his
supernatural strength and power
while
causing him
to
weaken and fall to his knees
the
mighty...

HerculesHandsomely heroic
Half human heavyweight
Hera hates, harries him
Hacks hideous hydras
Hunts horrid Hades hound
Hippolyta heister
Hitches honey, Hebe

spotted beautiful Delilah holding court
Scanned the room for Samson but
saw a chair where hair'd been cut...

Effort and TimeLike Moses in the desert, I have wandered.
My destination nowhere in my sight.
I’m searching for the joy I have been promised
But hampered by the seeming lack of light.
Like Icarus of old, I am a pris’ner.
I’m chained here to the ground by gravity,
And haunted by the...
