"Within An Ancient song."
A story poem
By, Michael .P. Clarke.

(EPIC.)

Anubis' Temple.

The Valley of kings
Here they were again
No successful dig
This time steps they found
Everyone did dig this day
Digging down
More and more steps
In the depths a mighty door
On...

I have seen the formation
Of ancient lands
I have seen the creation
Of ancient hands

Pyramids
That soar to the sky
Here amid
Temples majestic and high

I have seen
Wonderful things
Tombs and scenes
Of ancient kings

I have seen huge blocks of stone
Cut by...

As Pharoah thought
Deep thoughts on Thoth,
He became serious
And thought of Osiris.

What of Seth?
What do Anubis and Horus sayeth?
Of Amun and Mut,
And panoplied Nut?

It may take me forever
Mused the Pharoah -
To invent the Alphabet
To honour me...

The civilization of Egypt is a mystery,
But what I love the most is their incredible history,
It starts with Amun Ra, the god of sun;
Who was Khepri in the morning when he rolled in mud and...

I was trudging with deep thirst amid scorching sand dunes,
when suddenly the desert wind
hurled me against an ancient tomb;
and as the swivel door swiftly opened, my fear increased.


What was this mysterious, mystic place...

In a dark, dark room, 
an eerie aura surrounds; 
deathly whispers crawl in the air, 
sounding like incantations. 

A sarcophagus lays still in the room, 
whispers oozing out of it; no one knows 
that the...

All bow low unto Pharaoh,
Queen of all upper, and lower Egypt.
Hollowed halls echo thy name,
 Nefertiti.
Cast red sails towards infinity's,
 Swift currents.
 Nile waters part steadily 
Anubis guardian of the dead,
 Receive thus living deity.

There is a river flows eternal, 
Cutting swathes through sands aflame, 
Bisecting the ragged shanties, 
Sweeping tides of ancient glory, 
Whispering fluidly her name.

There are pyramids keeping secrets 
Of the dead they nurse inside, 
Concealing...

Please let me leave this 
paradise
Let me speak to him once

The one who I'd do anything 
for
The one who holds my heart

This alchemy of sin
Will never go unpurged
Get ready to burn
Lilith you are my...

she said to refuse the path
diverge and emerge upon your trail
the first step is always fraught
with a queasy uneasiness
a modicum of doubt is natural
ask the lemmings that survive
life is all about listening to within
large measures...

The craft came in a blaze of light,
people all knelt in awe,
slaves and Pharaoh gazed at the sight
no-one had seen before.
Two beings appeared, surveyed the scene
and down the ramp they trod,
not knowing that before them,...

Anubis waits before the gates of hell,
To mummify your morbid love entombed…
With sustenance a sanguinary smell,
Despondent demonic desires consumed…

An enslaved eternal epitaph lies,
Love captured in a pernicious prison…
A cancerous confined in its chastise,
Within a duality...

You came from a legendary period in time
Possessing almighty power
Respected and worshipped by those who serve
And feared by those who cower

Creator of the mystic pyramids
  Four sided structured tombs
The Old Kingdom bids farewell
An immortal...

Ra the Sun God
Ra Ta came to Egypt with old Thoth,
10, 000 years before the Jesus cross,
The great flood had been and gone,
Thoth, Mercury and Hermes were one.

I now understand madness.

It appears to be gladness 
A drop of gold hidden underneath blackness.

A greed that feeds a creature deep in
an Abyss.

A bit beneath Anubis.

Passed the succubus and the incubus.

Levels past devils and Judas.

Why do I feel this way?
A twenty something 
Going through a post midlife crisis
Staring in the eyes of Isis
Screaming in the face of Anubis 

Questioning everything & everyone
Looking for an answer 
To questions already answered

a life lived
a glass half full
oh, how I've fallen
oh, how despicable
once a butterlfy
now a hermit
I'm left wondering,
"was it worth it?"
the question with no answer
from anyone but myself
how does one measure
the wealth of one's self?
is it...
