Apháneia
A #poetry thread

i.

Great temple, Doric stone
that sprawls across the green.
Within, upon a throne,
one waits, a shaded queen.

Greek goddess in a niche
of stone with arch above —
her alabaster cheek,
wax tear, unanswered love.

Her name, Apháneia,
wan goddess of the wise,
the patroness of those
whom we hide in plain sight.

In the early hours this morning I didn't think I had a poem in me. I was still recovering from a virus related fever (and super-watt migraine) yesterday. But I did what I teach to do and just start writing and it started to form and I ended up with something I am proud of. I do not know how many people will really understand it, but that's life.

Crown
A #poetry thread

i.

My Lady stood within an arch
and wore her weighty crown of stone.
She gave her hand and I embarked
on a great quest I should have known.

As we walked, she steadfastly sighed
about the burden that she bore.
She dropped her veil and then she cried
that her long neck was tense and sore.

Odoacer
A #poetry thread

i.

Once the Seven Hills saw
the grim Goths at the gates,
boy Augustulus’ laws
faded with the Fates.

Then the sky’s sundial spun
for fifteen hundred years
and a new Rome had sprung
by banks of black Remus’ tears.

In fair Mundus Novus
by seven swampy hills,
a new magnum opus
made real by ink and quill.
