mystery entombs the chains the crones' mysteries undimmed by times
a thousand year's dirt scraped away changing the rules of a remote rain forest in northern Gautamala
towering mahoganies and cedars pristine hieroglyphs carved by the talon of the raven
it's a shell star---a war glyph it's another war they're talking about in direct communication with an ancient Mayan scribe
It begins by talking about the mid-life afterlife birthday of crone number one as you read down the glyphs giving a historical sequence to her reign
crone number two was defeated when there was another war she's really a poignant piece of archaeology the people of Dos Pilas threw a wall up over her monument a celebration to the rise of a Queen the wall built right over it the final irony
From a portage at Lake Petexbatun, crone number three bitten weakened and expired by a vampire bat
Images and hieroglyphs on monuments murals and pottery show evidence of limited ritualized conflicts
decoding hieroglyphics have changed our view revealing a central role for battle and human sacrifice.

Sage, this is nothing short of brilliant. Just when I think you have outdone yourself for the final time, you up the ante! Can't say enough good things about this. Rhinestones--? Hon-nee, you are a Diamond. Bigger'n the Hope !! Just sign me N. Awe. Your less glittersome but shootin' f'better friend Pea <3 ~~~ PS: Also love the new graphic on your bio page. Where do you find the treasures??
The world will come to an end, Peter, when Hillary Rodham Clinton is sworn in as president of the United States. QUIT THAT, SAGE!!! Damn, you almost hit my . . . er . . . nevermind. Well, anyway good, maybe I'll be around to witness the destruction of this old planet if it is 2012, heck, that ain't but . . . lemme see, that's only . . . it ain't long, you know. Your piece rived up my whatsamajammer in high gear, know-whot-I-mean?
Another fine piece from your gifted pen Sage. I love Raven's. I used to have two that visited me on my porch several times a week. I hope they return soon.I think they are smarter than most animals and other birds and delightful to watch their antics. Also, like Peter I've heard of the Mayan calendar 2012 date. There are several other sources that concur with that date. eT
Human sacrifices have been about since Abraham tried to sacrifice Issac a long time ago in the land of Canaan Sage...:)
This gives off resonations of the ancient and brilliant Mayan civilisation, which was streets ahead of its time, and was possibly wiped off the face of earth by a catastrophic asteroid strike eons ago
Incidentally the Mayan Calender predicts the world will end in 2012 !
Food for thought Sister Sage !

An outstanding poem, love the graphics; I've heard that the world will end in 2012, myself. That's not long. Timely warning!
