"Their cross will decay
Rome will be as a phoenix
Helios will reign supreme"
"The sun always sets
Accept the eagle’s old age
Find dominion in your mind"
loss will one day resurrect its sum ~ good news for most too bad for some
tough break for menippean efilists ~ living with sisyphus syndrome
three rotating helios monokus ~ eternally rolling stones
By David Kavanagh
Have you come back?
Have you come back?
Please stay away.
I want everything to be okay.
Don't come back.
Please don't come back.
Please,for now,just let us be.
For this please don't hate me.
Don't hurt this.
Please,I beg of thee.
Just let it be.
She hears Helios overhead
driving his horses on,
his work done for the day;
she bathes and robes,
then climbs into her silver chariot,
urging her dragons to draw
her across the inky sky,
which she will illuminate
with her beauty and gold crown.
Jack Horne for Nette’s Mood of Imagery contest
The sun was so friendly, he shot out a ray,
but when nighttime approached, he could no longer stay.
The sun hit the ocean, and the moon hit the sky
as the stars twinkled Helios a bashful goodbye.
But ol' Sol will be back, so you needn't weep -
he'll return in the morning when stars go to sleep.
Halo over his head
He had piercing, fierce eyes
Had children, some unknown
Heralded much like Zeus,
He rode across the skies
Helios was a fierce competitor
Horae, goddess he wed.

Airy cistern reserves now spent
Each billowing mast folds its tent
Helios hurls his flaming trident
Through singed porthole flittering glint
Fiery sparks stream through each stent
Refracted waves in mercurial columns bent
Misty water colors shroud each gilded vent
Burnt orange truffles, golden ridges resplendent
sky glows cloudy bright
edges of clouds melt away
elegant exit
teach those clouds lesson
Helios god of the sun
everlasting warmth
shine your brilliance
upon us that we might see
night has stayed too long
playing hard to get
overcast like wet cotton
put my prayer to shame
or get better gods
Uranus might help me out
turn this day around
The son of Helios He was the noble Helium
But He was an elemental slug fond of Valium
All said He was not at all noble
He was basically Ignoble-
Anomalous wetting of Helium on Caesium

You mere mortals I have told repeatedly.
We gods and goddesses on Mt. Olympus
want to be known by our true identity.
I have already approached you about this.
I’m the moon goddess; “Artemis” is my name.
Perhaps Helios should consume you with flame.
If I hear any of you call me “Selene”,
I will have to do something very obscene.
Robert Pettit for Nette’s “Into The Mood of Imagery” contest.
Florid elegance ablush
Nestled in gardens lush
Pigments triumph aplenty
Resilient verdant sentry
Colossal erectile shoots
Ingrain deep abyssal roots
Precious tis platinum spun
Abreast arising sun
Glorious tis supple reign
Aubade beauteous engrain
Vibrant sword lily plant
Borne on Gaia’s decant
Traverse archaic path
Helios waning wrath
Shadows await dusk
Abscond obliging musk

i am black,
and the shadows of my hair
become needles that sting the soil
during midday.
i suffer the torture of the heavens,
of Helios and the legends of the air.
they dwell above my being,
and they cast umbras on mine.
i roam on the desert of apathy,
not mine, but from the silence
of those whose lips are
stitched by my very own hair.
i am black,
i live in the half-world of your faces during sunshine.
A treatise on regenerating life
Old Man Winter's residual cultivated by Spring's mid-wife
Into fertile cavity seed with precision did knife
In earth's dark bosom; cauldron of strife
With jolting, painful movements rife
Helios incubated the embryonic pod
Unction sparked from Zeus's rod
Jupiter's vital streams embalmed ingrown clod
With growing pressure swelling kernel did prod
Fledgling shoots pushed through birth canal onto sod
The clouds shook
A thick, black, very wet blanket out
In the Southeastern quadrant
Of the New Mexico firmament,
Complete with lightning
And growling, crackling,
Massive basso-profundo sound effects,
Inviting the sun to rest,
Take a load off,
Reeellaaaxxx!
Abrasively radiant,
Helios glared a brilliant, heated, passionate,
Steamy smile
Into the arid monsoon skies
And refused Storm’s invitation
To lie down and go to bed
From beyond the vast heights of Helios
The inescapable black leviathan appears;
Crushing existential spheres of consciousness
Juices absorbed by cerebral hemispheres.
Troglodyte souls peer out
From cranial caves and shiver;
Without empirical illumination
Their hearts beat wild and quiver.
Unhinged swinging doors beckon to all
Offering true enlightenment for free.
Heaven or Hell served up cold or hot
Doth compel the blind to see.
i’ve been s-coffing quite a lot lately ~ i think perhaps i’ve got a s-cold
said menippean to the rhymester ~ s-pitting out helios as he s-trolled

Gratiae - the three graces, mythology of Greeks.
Considered daughters of Zeus and Eurynome
and yet said of Dionysus and Aphrodite,
or Helios and Aegle. Human creativity and fertility.
Goddesses of charm, beauty and nature
Usually by three in numbers; - Aglaea - Beauty,
Euphrosyne - Mirth, Thalia - Good Cheer.
Part of the underworld - the Eleusinian Mysteries.
For centuries song, prayer and poetry -
has worshipped their celebrated mysteries.
there is no mother nature ~ mere reality with her rolling pin
spreading an infinite universe ~ with no instructions on a tin
bring humanity into the mix ~ a strange ingredient comes in
the spit of droll intelligence ~ from our salivating menippean

Still from May Day, to the Summer solstice in June
a Helios vegan picks his nose daily, of the greenest legumes

B. C. A Flame
----------------------------------------------
All day long, we are under this orb, orangey, pink in hue.
We see it through the ghosts, the essences we once knew.
Helios, on his voyage over this blanket of cremated life, flies.
Unfortunately, only he, not we, doth see beautiful blue skies
while we, under this monstrously heavy blanket of gray,
have yet been able to view a cloud or a clear blue sky day.

Bestow me with poetic quotient
Styling my verses just fragrant
Magnificent is Thy limitless aura
Making jubilant all fauna and flora
How the organisms find solace
In Thy company pretty flawless
Let me get the niche so awaited
To discharge my chore celebrated
Bless me with Thy affection cool
So no poison creates a whirlpool
Of mood swings due to hatred
Of folks’ malignant plans dreaded
Thus my Sun Lord keep me under
Thy light as I pray and surrender..!!
Hidden in the shadow,
I feel safe and alone,
As the projecting sun,
Has no devious tone.
The helios intends light,
And only opaque objects,
Obstruct form and trueness,
Being as harmless as insects.
I can be completely myself,
In the shadows minute light,
No focussed, angled camera,
To rectify, scold and fright.
Waiting for them each day,
At four, halfers or five o’clock,
They’re so warmly relational,
About my wayward block.

Fifteen minute utter cohesion exists
Selene umbra shielded is dust kissed
Coinciding of inland and coastal discs
Earth Moon orbit drawn in magnetism
Spherical cycled symmetry, safety given
Invisible fingers tap tunes to their rhythm
Red emits forbidden midnight miracle
Hottest wanton, dual crossing elliptical
Helios wavelength cottons moon's spool

An ode to Helios
******
He steals across the courtyard,
the ardent lover anxious to surprise,
edging ever forward,
with fiery consummation as his prize.
His blushes blossom bright and hot,
as he lays forth his course and his intent,
ever nearer to the trellises,
the shadows shrink, now no impediment.
At his zenith he is seen by all,
our blessed sphere in full display,
inviting those who would to stand in awe,
to pray, and then go safely on their way.
