TRINACRIA

 

In ancient times

when demigods made myth

and history together

heroic beings

moved upon this isle

in strength and beauty

and terror too

these forms pursued

each other

sometimes changing forms

one to another

or rising from

the wine-red sea

to plunge

into the fertile earth

and later

spring to life again

half human

but already mortal

interred in tombs

that still today endure

to leave behind

exotic names

that history

can never quite accept

nor can they be erased

nor overlooked
