And what of brave Odysseus?

remembering the surrendering
and how it felt to live
a memory is left in me
when you've taken all I give

and what of brave Odysseus
still out upon the sea
shall he walk again among us
or be lost to history?

a lion's tale is little more
than a belly full of prey
punctuated by a roar
for the ones that get away

and what of brave Odysseus
still out upon the sea
shall he walk again among us
or be lost to history?

I hate it when I write these things in my sleep...I'll have to come back later and read this to decipher it...another riddle from the preconscious. Prospero as an amomancer.

My favorite poems come while sleeping, I only wish I didn't have to wake up to type them.
