Epona

Goddess protector of horses

Epona

Your mesomphalic phiale tends my libation,

sweet oils rubbed upon my putrid flesh

as death expels my being from this earth.

You moisten my libido

as you lead my soul,

your charger rising,

to the afterlife

in the heaving heavens where

siren Goddesses

in sensual visions play.

The Celtic Horse Goddess. The words of the Summer King? I find this to be a very complete image. Excellent writing.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you Ken

[Leslie Philibert]

Like the use of language here, a couple of expressions I will check up ( something I like), so a good poem that leads me to new thoughts...

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you Leslie. It was inspired by a poem by Mark so the circle progresses in the round!

[Girl Friday (Sarah W.)]

Quite nicely done. I'm particularly fond of the imagery and word choice; I am always impressed by writers who take the time to figure out what their words actually "sound" like to other people (whether conciously or subconciously). Well done, I'll read more.

Thank you so much GF
