Quatrain of Hierakonpolis
Prehistoric residence of Egypt
Site of the beginning of Egypt's
historical period.
Descending from mortal winds
whispering just below the beard
of God, silently walking into the
beginning of a great
civilization.
Lives affected with each rule,
burdened with slavery; being
forced to build stone temples
while ignorantly searching for
salvation.
Power and glory, planted deep in
the soil, enabling it to last for
generations and into the infinite
legends of exaggerated
wealth.
Pictures of pain grow dim as
history records only the magnitude
of kings desperate for power;
selfishly praying for their own
health.
