Born from dove like divinity Eros emerged in the freest fiercest forest Far from the sights of man And it effortlessly enchanted all it ever met The branches, critters, air, and ground were, Consumed in continual craving That only Ero’s fair gaze, sweet touch, serene scent could quench And for many eons Eros ran and reigned Until by chance it happened upon a new source of light Stepping closer, it saw the outskirts of an outpost Running into the town Eros encountered the children of mankind Lamps, roads, houses, wagons, and strangest of all, animals bound Then finally Eros met humans At first they were awed by it to the point of freezing Then snatching back their senses they all sought to win her Men and women, babe and elderly, All wanted a piece of Eros Overwhelmed, Eros tried to explain That it could never dwell in a place so compact, close quartered, Constrained But their ears were clogged by lust, and Eyes clouded in heat to conquer So Eros ran, later referring to civilization as, The Champions of Chains

Cradle of Eros
Born from dove like divinity Eros emerged in the freest fiercest forest Far from the sights of man And it effortlessly enchanted all it ever met The branches, critters, air, and ground were, Consumed in continual craving That only Ero’s fair gaze, sweet touch, serene scent could quench And for many eons Eros ran and reigned Until by chance it happened upon a new source of light Stepping closer, it saw the outskirts of an outpost Running into the town Eros encountered the children of mankind Lamps, roads, houses, wagons, and strangest of all, animals bound Then finally Eros met humans At first they were awed by it to the point of freezing Then snatching back their senses they all sought to win her Men and women, babe and elderly, All wanted a piece of Eros Overwhelmed, Eros tried to explain That it could never dwell in a place so compact, close quartered, Constrained But their ears were clogged by lust, and Eyes clouded in heat to conquer So Eros ran, later referring to civilization as, The Champions of Chains
