This is the second poem in the trilogy I wrote.
I saw my love carried away on a cloud
to the palace of the gods,
Where the master of fate crowned her with a star and
set her image among the heavens
So chained to the sky her presence shadowed the very sun.
Bringer of light!
Confronted by your beauty even Aphrodite goddess of desire
returned ashamed to Olympus.
She wept, and tears of amber fell
to stain the ground where I stood
And I was angry when I found her stolen
so I seduced a caste of priests with gold
And married the moon to be near her.
From there I made my attack on heaven and
Facing all the gods of terror, not even death,
That dread divinity dared to stop me.
I found her and drove the spirits of the dead
away to their funeral games
And caught her in an invisible net with doors of brass
Then she renewed her virginity in the river of forgetfulness
And had no sense of sin.
Hungering for travel, we revolved in infinite and empty space
Served by priestesses who lit misleading fires
and sang erotic poetry.
For three generations we controlled the calendar
So to worship her I brought a wreath of stardust
And crowned her.
Mystical bride of the gods!
Influenced by the love star Venus
Libra, lying east of the scorpion
Who alone controlled our destiny
Guided us while we made love for eternity.
