I Feel The Eagle Feathers Of Zeus

Inspired by Ink 

Hermes, Patron God of travelers in winged sandals and caduceus staff   
you claim Godspeed as you fly on and on and on   
Nike, Goddess of victory, athletic troubadour, sweet paramour 
you claim God speed as you fly on and on and on   
Iris, Goddess of the rainbow in Divine and mortal realms you go 
you claim God speed as you fly on and on and on   
Eros, God of love, you take wing with cupid bows and arrow
you claim God speed as you fly on and on and on   
Boreas, as the north winds blow, you are winter's God of power 
you claim God speed as you fly on and on and on   
Zephyrus, with a light wind gentle breeze every springtime, you bestow  
you claim God speed as you fly on and on and on   
Zeus, Greek God of lightning I feel your eagle feathers as I muse,  
as I claim Godspeed, flying on and on and on   
you open me the door and I am there once more * 
like a Godly inspired, “Dumbledore." 

You claim God speed as you fly on and
on and on and on, on and on and on.   


Ps: Dumbledore is the old English word for bumblebee.

two bodies one soul

reversed and reformed repost edit.

once before humans walked the earth. before Adam and Eve before the trees and the air we breathe there was one- 


one physical body with four legs four arms and two heads as well as one soul accompanied by one heart. as full of love and self as they could be. 
they challenged thy who brought to life and for that they were once cursed,
 cursed by zeus chained apart.
 as full as they once were they were henceforth two souls. 
two bodies of flesh two bodies with  a pulse with veins and a heartbeat.
 cursed to roam the earth in search for the other. 
in search for acceptance- as to be soulfully vulnerable and naked with each-other without the air and noise they had grown to know an as a “society”
 yet they walked the earth with a sparkling glowing desire. 
the desire soon turned into hope.
yet even when their prayers were answered they found themselves unfulfilled. soon the power of evil came into their hearts as quickly as the love for each-other.
the greed as-well as lust the undying urge to be unholy to once go back to how they were.
 fulfilled yet it seemed no matter how much they laughed and cried and yearned they would never be one.
 no matter how much they yearned for the other to be sewn together once again their prayers went unanswered.
no matter how much their bodies met in a orgasmic rush they were never one. 
as manic as one gets when they’re prayers are never received they soon hoped their deaths would bring them together.
 that the holy feeling of death as their blood poured and spilled into the others.
 the hope their blood would become one as it rushed together was nevertheless just hope.
 as they bleed they soon became to realize they would never be whole again.
 as they stared into the others soon to be motionless eyes they soon came to the realization this was their curse.
 their souls to be tarnished unholy and unfinished.
 to be chained away from each other for all of eternity, just for greed over the gods. this was forever the mortals of earths curse

Premium Member Do You Hear Me Zeus

The ocean calls to me,
I hear the faint voices in my head of
Their regret to the past,
Of things that should have been,
The voices fade and disappear,
I am drawn to the shores,
I feel sanctuary,
I feel safe,
No pain No suffering,
I walk further out into the ocean,
Arms stretched to the sky,
Calling out to Zeus and the Gods above,
To end this suffering,
I hear them tell me,
You must feel this pain,
You must live on so that you can,
Forgive yourself and begin to heal.
I walk back to the beach defeated,
Wondering did the great and powerful,
Zeus even hear me???
I walk as angels surround me in comfort,
Not knowing yes He heard me.

Zeus

Zeus the god of the sky.
Even a rifle wont make him die.
Hera is his wife.
The god of marriage supporting life.

Entry For Nette Onclaud's
Zodiac Zones Contest
G.L. All


Zealous Zeus

I am the father of gods, the Olympian family and of mortals
The protector of the sky, soil and sea; heights and human race
Lord and lover of eagles and oak tree; aegis my mighty metals
A just judge, with a merciful mind with a firm, friendly face.

The youngest yet, the sweetest son of Cronus and Rhae…tall Titans;
The brother of Poseidon, Hades, Hesta, Hera and Demeter… deities,
For freedom, I fought my father and his followers…terrible Titans,
And set my siblings free from the cage of Cronus who dodged duties.

The protector of the weak, the punisher of the wicked and mercy-mania;
Winning all wars but one… I am the husband of Hera, my sweet sister,
Father of gods and goddesses: Ares, Hebe, Hephaestus and Eileithyia,
Lived a loosed life with women, fell for so many flowers…a trickster.

I am the Zealous Zeus, god of rain, gatherer of the cloud and thunder,
I an the zealous Zeus, the father of charming and cheerful children,
I am the zealous zeus, the husband of the immortal and mortal mothers,
I am the zealous zeus, the mentor of all mighty, merciful and mild men.

Zeus

He’s there for me through thick and thin;
Closer to me than my next of kin;

With big ole feet, a long wagging tail;
And a nose that’s never lost the trail;

His long droopy ears have caught many a tear;
But I always have comfort whenever he’s near;

And I know whenever I am upset,
He’ll be there, my loyal pet;

He’s got my back, no matter what,
My silly mongrel and devoted mutt;

My baby Zeus, My faithful friend;
The one that will be there till the end.

Zeus

Good evening and sorry I’m late, dear monk
I want you to pray to Zeus for me…..
Because you have more blessed tongue 
And I want you to give these humble…..
Sacrifices to our god, Zeus
I thought I could give them myself….
But I actually haven’t been very pious!

For I have committed many sins, but still want to pray
And he may forgive me; I’m only a human of clay
Driven by passion, greed and whim
But I want to repent, so please ask him

The monk: go on, son

I want him to forgive me for cheating on my wife
And for lying to her (almost) my entire life!
That I have an affair with my neighbor 
And spend time with her that I don’t go to labor

Please ask him to make me rich
And to grant me a big land
Full of slaves and animals which
(With his blessing) can be a tropical island! 

Please ask him to heal my sick mother…..
Because she is very ill
And if she dies please ask him….
Not to send her to hell
Because she raised me up and took care of me
That I eventually turned out this way, you see!

Tell him how much we want kids
That we already made for them beds
Tell the mighty Zeus how big the joy
I’ll have if it is a girl (but especially a boy!)

Pray to him to accept my humble sacrifices
And to increase my virtues and decrease my vices 
Pray to him to make my prayers come true 
And to save us in this life and help us through
Thank you, dear monk, now I shall leave you 
Because you’re always busy and have a lot to do
 
The monk: I shall take these sacrifices…..
It takes a lot of effort to pray!
Then they wouldn’t be of much use to “Zeus” anyway
But oh! I forgot the man’s prayers…..
I should have made a list
But it’s okay, please mighty Zeus forgive him
And ……. ……..……whatever was the rest!

Deceitful Zeus

This is what you DO
Avoid Pandora, trust NOT
Live life without HOPE,
Take heed the early GREEKS
Who forbear for fear of SIN

Secret Whisper

Ahh, as you seat there under the twilight of the night, who would have known you were my destiny. For now, you are the means of me beneath Orion, Earth, and sea. The sages of Rome and the Gods of the Greeks; Athena, Heroine of Venus pay homage to the love shared between us. All shall add our names to songs of their history.

I yearn to become a part of you down to the very core of your being. My place is with you and to be always in your grace. I whisper your name in the secret crypt of my covenant; that no other man alive can witness your worth to me. For you are for me… and me alone. 

Whenever I hold you in my arms, I control all time and space. Whenever I look into your eyes, I stand face to face with the immortals… all those in Heaven. Your eyes, your lips, your touch on my flesh, the smell of your skin   Ahhhh…The taste of you, the breath of you, I … 

Exhaling to release the passion of my love for you, I yield momentary rest. Gathering my thoughts, I silence the ego of my vanity of knowing it is I who wash my soul in the waters of your natural spring and is revived; I who eat the fruit of your garden and bear the strength of 10.

I chuckle at the mere mortals that walk the earth as men. With you, by my side, I am the royalty on which Nobles stand. I am the might of Hercules and the power of Zeus. By the roar of the greatness of the lion “The King” ... I hold immense pride in bringing you to heights of mountains, to the falls of its waters, and the pleasures of its wonders. You’ve captured me with the force of tornado winds, and on your wings, I am carried still.

Written for a contest. Placed as N/A. Not sure why.. As a woman, I have witnessed men dominate, rule, and conquer for the love of a woman. This is what I believe went through their minds.  As per history..per-sae.

Zeus' Blade

tho thunder crash and lightning flash
i do not feel a drop
it seems so strange! these symptoms reign
and will not seem to stop
and tho this seems like grusome dreams
this is reality
i wont be stayed by zeus' blade
I'll press... because im free

Premium Member The Sibyl - Zeus

Midi bright October night,
In the sky-eyed clouds,
Gold and silver    then    my Lord
Did radiate thy wondrous light.
At each few steps I paused,
Turned my face upward
To bathe in your suspended strength -
Bearded Zeus,
Thy razor-sharp nose, 
Square-cut head,
Ulotrichous beard,
Blazing away    so near above -
Old Zeus
Cloud gatherer.

Son of Zeus.

I heard the bells of Jericho, ring out in distant toll,
A soldier’s death so warranted beyond the city walls,
As rows of warrior’s silent, heard lament to mourn demise,
The soldier wished a promised curse, his eyes upon the skies.

In tempest to his passing, the sands began to stir,
A raging force so effortless, did spin the torpid air,
And darkened clouds did so then shroud, as army took to fright!
The day then made to darkness, as though the day were night.

Did strike of light then thunder, and city shake to ground,
So all souls kept the walls therein, did languish no more proud,
The earth to open caverns did eat as giants feast,
Till all souls dead within this place, the tempest did then cease.

A silent wake of deaths own make, did speak within its throw,
That son of Zeus the soldier, the people did not know?
So heed all ye who God to be, in judgement so on he!
For Gods not men to judge so then, on him who God doth be!

Zeus Revenge

Zeus´s revenge  
He,  the best racing driver of all time, seven times 
he won the championship and he was able to retire 
still young and now very rich; yes the gods had smiled
upon this lucky man.  What did they have in mind?
He had defied death hundred times was there a price 
to be paid, a man with brutal skills and killer instincts.
 Winter holiday, we saw him skiing down a slope,
 lost his balance and fell, a banal accident one that
we laugh about, but his head met a rock and he lost
consciousness. 
He lingers in his bed doesn't know his name, maybe
he never will, this hard fall from glory it is not fair
that he should live life on soiled bed linen till he is
 dead. No mourners, but relief that at last his unjust 
suffering is over and hundred books  about his exploits 
will go unread on dusty shelves.
