Hades, a FragmentTo journey, yet alive, through Hades’ Gates,
Brings sorrow to the world, and to the Fates.
Yet Hades is the home accepting all,

Shine Shine MamaThe incubator of my life
Who shines more than the twinkling stars and blazing moon
In the Africa twilight;
And glitters more than precious gold's and diamond's of Africa

In Shallow Hours, graves are dug
By words morose,
Their hollow powers seem mundane,

pops half-way, till full, beamed round-faced,
a fire host heightened its facade,

My spirit would never settle
For such quiet and mundane.

Or twinkles on velvet snow,
Toward things quiet and serene
Isn't...
