2 Cib


Yellow Lunar Warrior


From Rome to Byzantium

The poets sing

The Iliad – the Odyssey –

The Glories of Arthur –

All poet Kings –

 

Beowulf of Denmark

Warriors of Persia

Greece, Egypt, India, and Ur –

Gilgamesh – the One

Who built wondrous Babylon

 

These Epics –

The first

Poetry – singing

Praises of Warrior Kings

Singing Kalliope’s Songs of

Heroes in Battle and Great Deeds –

Who through these Singers

Become Legend, Myth, and Lore

 

Therein we find Mnemosyne

 Cultural Memory and Mother of Muses –

Preserving for all the Arts

Of History and Story

 In Verses of Poetry –

Recited for Days

And Known by Heart.
