Defeating Valhalla
The brave Aesir in battlegear assemble
Launch on the backs of swans Siberian,
Soaring rainbow streaks that so resemble
Storming meteor swarms kasabian;
Wave after wave
Of Asgard’s dead heroes
Rush to a second grave where Pyerun’s sylph suit glows.
From Heaven Saint Volodomyr
Flew with an angelic guard,
FEAR floated thro the pale Aesir,
Panicking men’s minds are marr’d,
Swift did Barb’rossa disappear,
Down the road to Asgard,
Protected by Satanic riders four,
Leaving the battle to the trust of Thor.
The twisting saint sweeps down & spurns
Swan‐flight of that hammer ‐
Mjolnir returns, but handle burns,
Disarm’d by sorcerer,
Thor lost his life not cheaply rather than admit surrender.
Asia
Exotica
Above the sacred sites of Shangri‐La
Climbs the star temple where Vishnu resides,
Watch’d by the ancyent spirits from afar,
Blessing his mind with bliss & more besides;
Fabulous wings
Of golden Garuda,
Whispers of Hindu kings enter the Preserver.
Th’immortal met three lithe lizards
In a mystic kind of war
As a wonderment of wizards
Whisk’d from Vijiyanagar
Conjured up whirlwinds & blizzards
Aiding their battle star,
Hurling two wounded dragons to the ground
The other panick’d with pathetic sound.
In the desert by Meru’s vaults
Enstatured Indra stands,
Like angry Colts the jagged bolts
In each of those four hands
Went thundering to finish off the Wyvrn in the sands.
