Poe to monet
thus spoke ra
i am khepri at dawn
ra at noon
atum in the evening
thus spoke god
i am the son at dawn
father at noon
holy ghost in the evening
khepri youth scarab
ra stern falcon
tem peace water lily
ra traverses sky
in sun boat
wary of monsters
eye of ra summons
lioness sekhmet
to devour the wicked
and disobedient
no separation
of spirit and state
ra in republic
always
herein a record
of incarnations
poe perverse
resurrection
clawed out of grave
never left cemetery
no redemption yet
for slave nation
mother and wife
died giving birth
to monsters in
manger

Edgar Allen Poe
gold scarab
crazed ape
create detectives
always in shadow
of coming war
and greater god
emancipator
ultimate thule
pix sent him
to cold rock
farthest
from the son
lincoln falling sun
scorched earth
in civil war
his sekhmet stowe
cabin roar
aroused men to kill
dreamed of ship voyages
before battles
with rebel apep
last voyage
bright sun in background
battered barque reaching
peaceful shore
