Earthbound- and still Sisyphus rolls his stone;
The gods are angry, and it's us they smite-
Bound in chains, and Tantalus softly moans,
Sly Hades steals half a years sunlight.
Earthbound- for there you are and here am I;
Each chained by circumstance beyond his might,
No gods intervene at the sound of sighs-
While Earth makes do with six months of light.
Earthbound- no verses, no spell can cast,
For time and space keep the keys of night,
And nothing alive lives forever; can last-
But nothing brave lacks courage to fight.
A sign I'll send you, from my dungeon walls:
There's no peace reigns where no blade can fall..
the tiny moment we call life... in an infinite sea of darkness! good poem!
