The Gods Awakening


She saw life in Greece with all the golds
with all the favors of the Gods
and after the 24th year of her hair getting long
weathered many bitter nights of solitude
remote away in the island of New York, while
she fought to survive, to bring
good news one day back home.
But never was she given a co-traveler to have with her
on this journey for she had to prove alone of her
strength, of her willingness, of her loyalty
to her history, to her identity
and she learned the minds of many unknown men
and fought the hearts of many unknown species
during this journey
till finally one day she found EIDOTHEA.

Of these adventures, Muse, daughter of Zeus,
tell us in our time, lift the great song again.
Begin when all the rest who were to welcome her
upon her arrival had all returned back home,
while she alone still battled for home and food.
His lordship Christenios; son of Evrinthos from Attica;
sheltered her inside the Wooden doors of Pylos-
a mortal yes but most blessed from the hands of Lady Hestia,
Goddess of the hearth and home; on the day he left
the homeland thirty years ago bitten and not forgotten of
his mother’s great tragedy,
who saw her like the lost family of his own.
