Ode For Athena

Ode For Athena
7-6-13

I build my Parthenon upon my Acropolis
To pay reverence for the mistress of my dreams
At the street corner of my Metropolis
Paying due reverence just because
It is in my eye to incline an ear
Wielding a love that doth cast out all fear....



Hispid
7-6-13

Yet hispid and bristly
Are the limbs that caress our atmosphere
Hazy and misty to prove the illustration
Of these elements of the curse
That serves as the blessing in disguise
In that I disregard all due suspicion
Where love will see me through
In that I am an heir according to position
Yet hispid and bristly so will be my agenda
For another prolific Sabbath of sorts..





Java
7-6-13

Everything is in its right place on the Java Sea
Needing not be stranded on the Isle of Belitung
Making the best of being short of breath
By way of another iron lung
Right next to my feline companion
That serves as the theme of all songs boldly sung
Where everything is in its right place
Where I remember what it is to know God's grace.....
