From your Roman Empire, to my Ancient Egypt... from your eyes and their cool fire, to the curses falling down my lips Up from your northern skies, out of my vast desert's hottest sand In from your colosseum's light, down to my catacombs' earth and land Their cowardly call for battles and war is our romance's answer to serenity They only dare to fight us from afar, my name haunts them for all eternity Let them come if they wish and dare As we inspire the world's greatest love stories I'll let my kingdom come, all rich and bare But they will never go down in history

ancient histories - egypt
How do we take control of our story once we’re dead? How do we write the wrongs that men have written Over and over and over again Seared into our minds like a brand You see, we don’t see you for what you were We only see you as how you were told Just another hedonistic woman in history whose own downfall was herself Its all out of your control now Your image is wrecked and ruined You’ve been forgotten and ****** By both the gods and the people And the worst part is Is that no one can ever truly fix that And it makes you think How many times has this happened? Again and again and again

Cleopatra
as her ladies paint her blue blood on her lips Cleopatra speaks: “queens die like this: with the theatrics of the crowning ceremony and the proud negligence of the morning toilette: the gods-awful magnificence of a wrist-flick: draw me my milk bath, bring me my venom pills.”

immortal longings
to become immortal, you must devour the gods. begin with the god of fear and when the god of the nile floods your heart's temple lay your offerings underwater.

two lessons from ancient egypt
The whip lands on labyrinth of lines. The shout, filled with a hopeless prayer - ”jahve!” The scream, prelude of the charm that death whispers. Pharaoh takes a bite sweet grapes satisfy as much as the queen's ********
