“Suppliants of the Hearth” ~AESCHYLUS With suppliant olive branch, to what kinder land could Man return? Whose cities and earth of brightened water Olympian lords, ye ancient gods below Whose end possessed the tomb, though Savior Zeus Keeps pious souls and yet receives (respectful in the airy lands of men) Those suppliants of the Hearth, rehearsed! Though for the smarmy scorn of ****** men Before the draught tastes the dregs of waste Return their ships upon the brothing seas And wintry stings of hurricanes the braved Pressed on by lightnings, thunders, cast upon More wild of winds, by facing life to death Undo what wrong the law forbids Cousins of pain who lie in strain upon unwilling beds! Who shows the faithful witness Still unknown by natives here As unexpected to the false Unknown upon who know and last at length! Meloncoly more of song than Ionian strings My heart unused to tears on Nile’s cheek We gather bloom of sorrow Anxious friends Someone in search of strength As exiles, far away on an empty mist! Hear then, ancestral gods And kindly look upon the tears of justice lost With hating people, nothing left to lawlessness undecreed- Our union justly met! Behold the Heavens Invincible in bulwark Touring always the lasting weary Among men, respect of gods! Now will be done Traced easy in the Earth Uncompromised of fortune And blackness through the hearts of men!

Aeschylus, chosen prelude to "The Dragon Hero" third book of the Trilogy: "Odyssey of Heart."
To be the best in all things poetic This makes me wonder.. Why do we gather in rooms Which belong To foolish words To humbled souls and to tainted love Why is it we journey togeather Releasing the Entrails of our souls Our meloncoly ways and the sweetness of our hearts For though we all gather For though we all share The gems The dirt The laughter And the pain We all travel our different paths Looking for stimulation looking for our own understanding Looking for a place in which we all belong

Gathering in rooms
I had a woman who I thought ignored my beast like shell and saw the Prince I was on the inside, as I called her my beauty; now my meloncoly heart must break all over again longing for the day when she comes back to me.

Melancholy heart
In the quiet green of a sunlit vine, Where dewdrops rest and shadows twine, Lies a melon round, with a heavy sigh, In fields where days drift idly by. Soft and sweet, its flesh inside, A tender heart it tries to hide, Yet weighed with seeds of fleeting cheer, Its sweetness tinged with hints of fear. It’s summer’s child with autumn’s gaze, Golden light in shorter days, Both ripe and raw, it knows too well The taste of joy on the edge of farewell. And as the fields turn bare and cold, The melon dreams of days of old, Of laughter, warmth, and skies so high— A sweetness meant to say goodbye.

Meloncoly
The wolf scurries at night to howl at the moon In his eyes, a gun thats broken and won´t stop shooting As loneliness stands by It beats twice The carousel is broken and it swings like a child on a sing Like meloncoly playing with regret The silouhettes and shadows come to life, They wander through the halls Empty, emprisoned It beats ten times A drop falls in an endless sea and wrinkles the sands of time Desperation watches and love walks away It beats fifteen times The flock of crows organize a mutanity against silence And peace is defeated It beats thirty-six times Anger has a whiskey and pasion tries to ****** him The piano man sings with his beautiful notes and lust comittes suicide Hope leaves the bar, and acompanies loneliness as he stands by to watch A wolf scurry to howl at the moon It Beats One Time Becuase only one time is necesary

It only beats once
Translucent dim lit paper moon Slightly faded pale subdued tones Delicate meloncoly hues gossamer gold royal blues ethereal undertones halos rings emits eclectric solar beams radiates a rare luminescent glow Shiny satellites inferior installations know Gems of pearlescent ethereal stones Composed orchestrated melodic overtones Glorious galaxies of metallic chrome Explored precious irredentist milestones

Hearts are like diamonds They shine brightly bringing light to the dark thats what her light did for me and our diamonds shined together that was then she stole to meloncoly heart and its more then i can bere and thats why hearts are like diamonds there all diferent shapes diferent colors but all fragile and they all tell me to be happy at which i am but after a heart is shattered its just like a diamond in everyway non perfect so she continues to think it wasnt that bad that i didnt love her that much that i still love her but she was my whole world SHINE BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND
