The buzzing and murmurings
swirled – effusing out into the air
festiva lights twinkling in rainbow
colors
across the veranda’s mystical
flair
as la gente tipped back and forth
in motions of theatrical cast
wearing oddly grotesque masks
of Dionysian faces aghast
while Athena slept in the bedroom
Hera’s eyes guarded the anteroom
Prometheus’s stolen fires lit the
scented candles
and Eros’s passion’s gave flight
to the scandals
Venus awaits to offer dawn’s alpha
light so to replete beta
energies lost in the gamma
darkness of omega.
