Long Tartarus Poems

"I am the wisdom of Greeks 
I am the gnosis of the savage barbarians 
I am the shrewdness of Greeks 
I am the prudence of the lawless barbarians 
I am despised everywhere 
I am loved...

  DEVIL GO HOME- -
Git thee behind me, Satan;
Lucifer, Demon, Beelzebub;
Whatever your name is now, get up, get out go…
Oh, oh, oh no-
Devil this place is not your home;
Go on go away this I...

"Titan and the Night Tears of Eos" 

Another world calls
dreams in 
the in-between 

place before all

where the night tears 
of Eos never fall
unified consort

Astraeus caresses
dawn with 
twilight gifts

Eosphorous 
dawn bringer
waits upon Hesperus 

Titan borne
distinct divinities

YOUNG CRONUS	(5.7.09)

My father decided he wanted his children		
buried, and left for dead.
But my mother, Gaea, both fair and true,
spared her children instead.
So I met with my selfish father,
where, by Gaea, we both were led,
and, holding...

April is the month Persephone comes back 
from Tartarus, crossing the river of death, Styx, 
with her stillborn child in her breast. The river she crosses with 
her child though flows while carrying the empty...

The village road

The milky road stretches a mile
Fresh tea for ducks and fishes is ready
Rolling wheels are the new hull.
Frogs with umbrellas and tadpoles in armour,
They risk for adventure.
Snails and crickets singing as they march,
Fireflies...

They orbit long with brief visions of each,
four pitch-lit eyes strike the shapeless hour.
How handsomely becoming is Houdini ‘pon a coward,
and who, really, is he, to hide away the breach?

Half the world is hidden, nay,

Starvation, famine, death for all.
The prophecy foretold long time ago.
Bear no fruit of hollow labor.
That makes the urban and rural looks varicose.
Ploughing all day nothing to bring homeward.
There is many a brave heart here dying...

The year had started bravely,
	With assurances anew
	With life and hope anew
O, but the knave – he played me,
	With assurances untrue!
To contemplate it slays me -
	His promises untrue!

Yet years drone on like drumbeats,
	The monotony of years
	The...

Before the Light of the Sun and the stars began to shine,
Dwelled the Winged Chaos, in pitch as darkened as red wine,
His companions were Nyx the Night, Erebus the Darkness,
And Tartarus the Abyss, the dungeon...

I stand in the swamp by the riverbank 
clutching a coin I have stolen
as my heart still beats within my breast
It is only my spirit 
that has slipped away
to await the ferryman of Acheron
Charon who

O heavens, open your eyes,
Read my sad penned story,
Written before and after my 
foot prints,

Open your eyes, O heavens,
See my tears falling down
Streaming to rivers of violent 
waters,
Eroding bridge walls in freedom 
search

O heavens, look...

That Blessed Day


When the shuddering echo,
Of battle-cries vanish forever,
Under the victorious cheers
Of universal brotherhood,

When the cold murderous cannons,
Will be silenced by love, 
And in their barrels singing birds
Build their nests,

When the cruel wounds,
Mercilessly inflicted by...

You were not celestial Cupid, and because they
Are wounded; you were most than those earthly ghosts
Brought down hearts by becoming Tartarus’ mastery;
That was purified by sufferings and misfortunes;
Some striking with long orgasms or others become...

Ferry me across the river Styx
Into the realm of the dead
Charon won’t you take my danake?
Ferry me across the river Styx

To seal my faith

In Tartarus I do belong
For all I did was...

Harpies shrieked and lost souls wailed
The cold wind stung as embers sailed
A fetid stench, eyes red with dust
When I looked through to Tartarus.

Black column’s rose in demon form
terror enthralling those forlorn
Compelled I shuddered as I...
