Myths of Stones

Far into these stones of silences
 soft in the smell of history
from watery chaos to cosmic egg 
whose return to words I am waiting for?

We are delivered by myths
where lay our old fever of love.
Time and the boat, victories and losses 
the rise and fall in the Nile water.

There I may meet King Menes on a late summer night
when centuries drift to hold a larger life
This sleep is a book where I meet 
Colossi of Memnon in the silence and noise.

My fears of losing receive no one.
My unwarranted fulfilments of tomorrows
are bare faces of lives connected somewhere before,
lives disconnected without reasons.
Now I stand among flurry desires
in the gates of the ruined Mortuary temple.
These ruins are my own like my faiths.
How can I forget  all I hold
before I go for a long sleep?

Premium MemberTickles and Pickles In Eve's Den

He's given me a pickle
with nary any tickle!
As in the shade I stood
[He wasn't very good!]

The apple that I shared
he gave to me unpared.
So I gave his snake a shake
to make him see the stakes.

Then the sky went BOOM
G-d came into the room.
I told you I said, "NO!
Now really, you must GO!"

Eve'n a dame could see
Eve's den wasn't free.

So menes mind your pickles
don't forget your Evies tickles
Or your snake will go unshaked
and you'll get punished

for Goodness SAKE!

Hey when was sake invented?

Dedicated to the Rube Syd Beck read [Let My beetles Go!]
