《Ephemera | poetry》| A Walk to Olympus |
Advertisement
A walk to Olympus ; in a starry dream,
Strokes of azure un-touched un-seen,
A clash of a mortal with immortal souls;
A reality to shatter away some thrones,
To the mascot of thunder, heaven and worlds,
He who swirls his magic in streaks ; grey and gold,
Would Zeus give me a piece of light;
To carve eternity on our grave stones,
A word with Artemis if I could have,
The deity of hunt and all wild lands,
Would she lead me astray to the wilderness unknown;
Help me seek the seclusion my heart had known,
And where would he be the God of horses and seas,
The mythical Poseidon ; one who rules the great reefs,
Does he have the audacity to drown in the waves;
When the world is parched in heavenly rains,
Am I visible to her ; the deity of nighted times,
The darkling Nyx who reins the midnight skies,
Will she be there when I embrace the gloom of my soul;
Cradling me to death when my eyes would be sore,
And hail to the king who has ever long died,
The lonely Hades ; who never knew what was life,
Would he welcome me home after a journey forlorn;
When I walk into hell with my demons forevermore,
Where was Panacea when I needed her the most,
The mascot of healing who let my shallow wounds grow,
Where was her remedy when venom coursed my veins;
Where was her touch when my rosy cheeks were stained,
So when I walk to Olympus in my mindless dream,
To converse with these rulers ; these chimerical beings,
I would curse them the truth they should by now know;
The mortal held storms ; they could never endure.

Lone: The Wanderer [Dropped Version (includes original draft of the rewrite's first volume)]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer? [Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies] A/N: This story is in the middle of a rewrite, so please forgive any noticeable plot holes and wonky chapter numbers. I am working on it every day, so understanding would be greatly appreciated. The new cover art is a courtesy of the very kind and talented ssddx. This novel is a participant in The Writer's Pledge
