what became of Cyril & Methodius -
or what torpedo-headed
alligned
old rome, and new rome,
or rather: old greece
and new greece...
the:
δελτα |
дεлтα...
a world so small,
gravitating toward
a taking...
but a nudge in
the right direction...
and all, fall...
had i but the hunger
to clarify stipend grievances,
i would not be the one
"owing" an education
worth flushing down the toilet...
all they taught was how to
prolong idlehood,
and confiscate my limbs...
at least by writing,
i can retain owning a tongue,
without fear of having it removed.
there is no nostalgia to crave
for, no "classic" example...
but the byzantines can
be proclaimed as the birth fathers
of modern russia, as antithesis
of rome...
for that i give them praise...
for what it is worth remebering
about modern greece, i.e. byzantine...
is its the cyrillic script.
after all, the foundation stone of
russia...
unless you mind,
this is the modern, ancient Trojan
horse of prospect...
i wouldn't bother
taking Dante as a guide...
for me?
Horace.
