Shield not thine fenestella from my tarantistic spirit so earnestly

Lift thy scialytic veil and evince those furibund relics from Lethe's depths.
Memories of mother's soft serene womb

With other gods, are haply the cynosure
Of poets whom inspires your sacred ewer,

AmusingMany a man may muse…
Like lust for Mnemosyne and Zeus’s daughters…

SilenceSILENCE
Articulations bound by another’s place.
Maw silenced, no expressions from this face.
Inarticulate, the lingna moves not for Beauty.

In order to benefit from ‘then’…
We must record it with paper and pen.
History books store events of the past
Always looking back, their...
