Under a Shadowy Moon

pure and simple
the smile and dimples
the vanity of being wanted

loved and adored,
 such admiration might
 cause one to be ignored

thus should such behavior
 cause others to favor
simply by the looks of the flesh

eyes can lie
and we know why
he stay's alone to himself

to speak disconcerting 
and then speak of his yearning
to put love in remission

he labors to thrill
and hones his skills
and speaks of vanities purpose

he makes his decisions
from when his condition caused him
to be ill

when he lacked strength
 and was unwise of health
and those who were trusted to his care

they would not support him
and neglected to distort him
and loved him mirely for wealth

now that he's better
and he's got his things together
his vain and egotistical
mean spirited euphonium

factors of importance
and his inflated opinions
causes him keep close friends
and stay to himself

he yearns for intelligence
and those fellow gets
who wish to be wise and healthy
they speak in close meetings
and how folks see him
is vain and and aloner to himself


from the story "The Scrolls of Colossus"
a Greek who loves a Goddess from the World of Filania
her name was Darna, until he overheard her speaking of his condition and wealth. He was sick and found strength from the God Asclepius
who taught him self love and healed him
using the teachings of " The Centaur Chiron"
in his later years he made heros out of men
and they banned together and
to fight the injustice of the evil Gods and Goddesses of the Underworld
when he heard a story of Bathala and Eringes, who
considered together to capture the beast of the fields
so that the children of Cronus and Moirae could not feed the sick and the children would have no milk
they summoned the spirit of Ceres to ask Cupid to seduce Athena
so she would be pregnant and would be in need of milk for her child
when she became pregnant they stole her Milking cows and her milking goats 
and gave it to the woman to feed there children. A peasant from Naples impregnated one of the goats and the Spirit of Ceres took the child to Athens
the child became sick and Asclepius strengthened him with the milk of a whale The child's name was Neptune" the Bosom Serpent". He feed the child using a fingerboa and thumb hook from the theater of Zeus.He drank wine when he was a man, but was nuctered from the milks of a water demon.
