The prison cell was the best place Hector had ever lived
He relished his solitude
He had never had silence in a foster home or a group home
Hector was at peace
Glad to be here
Grateful for this quietude
Then he got a roommate

Here lie the remains of Hector O. Swift
Someone gave him an explosive gift
Seems Hector got quite a lift
He had no time to even feel miffed
Through his remains we had to sift

Hectors Dolphins are listed as, endangered
and a sub-species, Maui’s Dolphin are critically endangered
with only about 55 left, in New Zealand’s shallow waters
in the North Island eastern shores, is their home with borders
Hector Dolphins dorsal fin, looks like Mickey Mouse’s ear
and they are the smallest and rarest, of all marine dolphins
Their biggest threat, is being caught up in human fishing gear
and humans polluting, boat striking, developing and seabed mining

which he
had
doubled
like all the

no mic

strings
that would

songs
from the
mad mind
though socially
refined and
an equally com

defined as a conductor
conducting
electricity
from the
ether
sit in the center
of a cathedral as
his requiem mass
amasses as if from
a Tesla coil
not to be fooled
or foiled as the brass

Magnet drawn, I follow, follow ...
Can't get enough of your forever smile
I follow, follow your wave questing dance
Hector Hector
Celebration of L I F E
You diving muscle of exultant happiness
I live in you ... vibrant and energised
" Death net Death net "
"Death net Death net"
My happy friend I lost you
a moment there
Did you follow a schoolful of
yellow food?
Oh heart coldness
I see you
grey melting away
D E A T H
I will mourn you forever
life will never
be a celebration again
Your forever smile is gone
and so is mine.

A quest for power is a quest of faith.
The mythology states rank is gave.
An empty mind lacks the ability to form hate.
Insofar, what is the maxima that sake?
The drink of the Greek and Roman gods, nectar
Cause a religious uproar, wretchedness
A Trojan prince and warrior killed by Achilles, Hector
The impression made, etchings
Just paint a tale of two countries.
In mentality, one devises a plan.
War fulfills with strategy and plumbs.
An army cannot campaign with only one man.
So greatness, erected
A Trojan champion, slain
Hector falls, dejected
Mythological stated to be, intimidated
Strategy in war is to dishearten.
To achieve disparage, he was killed.
The Trojan War illustriously removes rank and smarts.
Hector was Trojan prince and the greatest warrior ever lived.
Greek is the mythology.
The Trojans are in battle.
In the Trojan War, Achilles took Hector life and his part.
The significant maxim is righteousness was earned.

Not for glory, even honors sake
He fights for his family, wife and son at the gate
Greeks attack, they push us back
Hector must now lead the counter-attack
Hector!
Tamer of horses
Holding fast
Prince of troy
Ajax the great, slayer of nine
Duel “the Trojan’s head shall be mine”
To a stand still, day and night
Matched in skill, courage and might
a truce is called
Waves and spray clean our fallen
Zeus weighs our fates
the great sits, staring at the gift
the horse prince’s sword
Why?
Smashing gates, scaling the wall
Apollo on my side, standing tall
Killing patrolus, a child in man’s armor
Dying words, Hectors fate none the better
Hector
Tamer of horses
Holding fast
Princes of troy
He knows he is doomed, gods have spoken
there stands Achilles, at the gates still of motion
Warrior to the end, challenging the gods
Draw weapons, defying the odds
