If you say the music comes from the lyres,
Why is there no music from the lyre in case?
If you say the music is on the tips of fingers,
Why can’t you enjoy music at your finger base?
(Tran.)
Making eternity
out of a moment
Escaping
the pretense of time
Beginnings
and endings
Falling away
in one enduring rhyme
Making eternity
bend to my will
An Angel
comes to dance
Wings on fire
Horae's lyre
The instant christened
—another chance
(The New Room: June, 2023)
Erato
Each of the nine Muses
Endeavor to inspire.
Erato, lyre in hand,
Engages with men's minds,
Elegantly with words ...
Each phoneme, each pattern
Encourages lyrics.
I say to You,
“I will do whatever Thou hast me do.”
You reply,
“Daughter, love, I ask you die.”
And when I beg the reason why
My heart bleeding
Lord, You cry,
“Eternity is yours!”
To my tired sigh.
“Fine,” I swear.
“Let them tear out my hair and throw stones.
You and I know nothing breaks these old bones.”
Ever since that day,
The pact that was made-
The sky hast been stormy
Uncertain and grey.
But Our love is infinite
So I’ll be okay.
"As the greatest of all poets and musicians,
tho' you may call me 'liar',
Hermes may have invented it
but I perfected the lyre
and with my music and singing
if only I could see
the forest for the trees
I would coax the woods to dance for me
but, on the other hand
from where I stand,
it appears to be,
looking at it from all angles,
nothing but nettles, brambles
and both
briars and tangles,"
quoth he, Orpheus in the undergrowth.
