The Marriage of Heaven & Hell

I thought that life was but a con
that anti poetic education
had made biased version of history
& no secret was shared twixt you & me.
No secret that only a kiss could tell,
Where Sofía & Krysos harrowed hell,
Only Marriage of Harmony & Cadmus,
The forging fingers of Pythagoras.

The letters of Cadmus written both bold,
young: it´s the same story but we are old,
we can change but the story´s as so you see,
an improvement on myth & history.
Sofía & Krysos are still hidden,
So what! this is no Garden of Eden!

Heck, Robin!

If ONLY more folks realized,

So what! this is no Garden of Eden!

I just love this poem, especially for its saccadic, go-bump-in-the-night off-putting rhythms!

Great poetry (as usual)!
