I see you shining brightly in thr night skies
like a burning amethyst in the celestial constellations
kind and compassionate patron of teaching
mythical teacher of the wondrous arts
archery, warfare, music, poetry, ethics and medicine
son of Saturn, and without flaw or fault
spotless in nature, and communicator of the crafts
wounded and afflicted by the same poisonous arrow
that brought about the demise of Achilles
you freely gave away your life and immortality
to release the wise Titan Prometheus' from his bondage
and endure his vicarious punishment
chained eternally to the mountain
and lift the rage and curse of King Zeus
the awesome Hercules weeps for you
upon the heavenly Mount Olympus
but your glory and honour will never die
you are our spiritual master and mentor
with an unalterable legacy of love
you streak in comet form
across the universe for our discerning eyes
and I align myself from this day forth
consecrated to your illustrious virtues and morals
