Collaboration of the Gods!

They came together in the night and created prose! x

Selene

Sweet Goddess of the night we beseech thee,

Shine upon us in resplendent moonlight

Splendour beams from your glorious façade

To pierce our eyes and heart in harmony

 

Ictinike fooled the rabbit from his clothes

God of war, he taught the People to kill

Marrying the Chief’s daughter, he laughed

‘til the rabbit tricked him and broke the spider’s leg

 

Celebrated in victory

Vilified in slaughter

Lustful warrior deity

Aphrodite’s lover

 

Trunk of fire seeps metal to bind

A clever death never far from her grip

Weapons to score thousands and us one

Kali a dear friend and enemies poisoned tip.

Author's Note

A touching piece that brings writers together.

"To pierce our eyes and heart in harmony"

Favorite line, by far. I'm imagining all the implications it could have--so many "what if?"s dance through my mind at the thought. A colorful write--descriptive, fantastic, strong. Well done, to all of you!

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Next time you guys want to do a piece about the Olympian gods, you should include Hypnos. He is an expert on them.

I love when great writers come together like this...the result is always a delectable read...and this is no exception. Great job, guys!!

You've mixed the mythology/religion of many cultures here in a fine tapestry of story telling regarding trickery and death that echoes throughout the stories of the world. Well done.

You are becoming a myth like this great mythical poem...:)

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Well I can't take credit Sami, there are four of us writing this piece but it turned out well, thank you.

[Sami Khalil]

Good to know. You are welcome...:)

Can't figure out if your Aphrodite or Kali, either could you or Baby!
