lol.....the ancient greeks were geniuses. We still use their stories till today.


I did notice that many pagan religions share similar stories....take for instance the queen of the coast or sea.....mermaids....mammy water.....all shared in different ways by different cultures around the world


Every pagan religion had a trickster god

Another place

HARDDON:

Cold as ice
Twice as nice
Melting mountains

Likened unto the sea
I toss i ebb like water waves

earth is мч name
World's weight ön mah neck
Still strong i stand

I dance to many beats
Beats of raging quill
Still Tranquil chill

Мч ways weird
Мч days smeared
Yet still on wings i lead

Like the drone i take on thrones
I aм but i clone


Nice smiley

Thank you nu-well, vantee,

Tut, tut.
This wont do
Did not your dear mama say,
In her kitchen yesterday,
Never fight anyone in May
Not one rage you may display
Forsooth, nay...

¶'m a human
Created to love
¶'m a man
Made by God above.

¶ breathe peace
¶ emit elegance
¶'m a diamond
The best there was, there is and ever will be.

¶'m a king
¶ own my world
¶'m a god
¶ rule my 'dom.

To all Nairalanders
Give me your ears
Look around and wonder
¶'ll be here for years.

In lines i pray tail
In vibes glide

We romance rhymes with d fury of euphoria

And carnal not in words

You used to love me
Now you dont
You used to be open
Now you front

We used to laugh together
Now we dont
We used to make love noises
Now we grunt

I used to love Ishilove
Now I dont
I used to think of her face
Now I'm burnt

I am amazed
I am delighted that edifying posts have started hitting front page
I am wondering what has caused this change in Seuns heart
I am sure its God

I am noticing less of Tontoh Dike
I am seeing more of Ishilove on FP
I am also therefore begining to get suspicious because
I am wondering if Seun has dumped tontoh and is now eyeing Ishilove

I am warning you Seun, if you chase my first wife Ishilove angry
I am going to come after your sweet heart Mukina2

ALso during my research, I actually found some EXACT same events in certain mythologies, even though the 2 cultures and ethnic groups had no interaction whatsoever in history. The same sequence, just with different names, etc.

Most Nairaland poets are dry n boring with very little talent.....


But the few who are good...their poems penentrate the mind like an arrow to the soul....deep, orgasmic and pleasing to read.....

Ishilove: I am fire
I am ice
I am water
I am the earth.

I am the north
I am the south
I scream, even when
I am silent.

There is a rage beneath
Bubbling beneath
In the calm underwater
Volcano.

I feel love
I feel hate
I take a knife
And plunge it deep.

In fascination
I stare at it
At my own blood
At mine own torment.

I am not what I seem
I am exactly what I seem
Look very closely, because
I am what I am...

I am what I am
I am Mona Lisa
To the world
I am white
Cool
Calm
mild
Meek
But I am what I am
Deep down
I am red
Fire
Wild
Blood
Wind
So I am what I am
I am Mona Lisa

Ishi, well done.
