Poems about Poetry
ALEXANDER
by kapardeli eftichia
Alexander “Greek Prince ‘
one hand holds the spear
and Shield
under the armpit
“Resindet that Pindos
called Macedon “
divided into real time
heir of the ancient world
son of Zeus Ammon
Blood Alexander divine blood
a God who is
fertile land
gives fruit,
the great myth that
Law and order
destiny in a
eternal return
a large Conqueror
******
Alexander the Great
Jupiter holding lightning
table in Apella
Royal golden generation
“It is possible becoming
one of many “
Grand marshal
Egypt and Palestine
conqueror
The Greek cities of
Asia Minor, the Liberator
“Of the Greek name not by gender but by the intellect
“
the same Greek spirit and
the same language in
Greek culture all
reborn
Winners and Defeated
