- The definition of an epic poem is a long, serious, poetic narrative about a significant event, often featuring a hero. Before the development of writing, epic poems were memorized and played an important part in maintaining a record of the great deeds and history of a culture.
I remember when our love was simple a preamble to the heart tremble and the gods' gamble when we didn't owe each other anything and our artistry meant everything, we were free of hope and suffering, living on the feeling of belonging to love rising, We made a lexicon of lightening and splendor of thunder rendezvoued in the sharp rain of rage and grew gold roses in rebel's plunder, taught truth not to bet on beauty but to bite into the meat of rugged reality, to taste our mettle, you became the priestess of my noetic eyes, and I, the priest of your poetic pain, we were miracle - J.A.B.
Me and you as one can be.... Time fly's by slowly... We started out fine.... Now look at we! The good days didn't last very long! I still remember the long nights we sat up talking about unnecessary things.... The pale moon light blaring down on my face on a summer min night...... My eyes are closed tight. My thoughts are at a whisper.. Morning light comes and still no progress.... I'm afraid its to late... What we had is gone ..... Me & You are dead!
Summary of gilgamesh
A prelude introduces us to the hero. Gilgamesh’s mother was the Lady Wildcow Ninsun, a minor goddess noted for her wisdom, and Lugulbanda was his father. Gilgamesh built the great city of Uruk and surrounded it with magnificent, intricately constructed outer and inner walls. He erected beautiful temples for Anu, the god of the heavens, and for Anu’s daughter Ishtar, the goddess of war and love. He laid out orchards and ponds and irrigated fields. A dauntless explorer, Gilgamesh opened passes through the mountains and dug wells in the wilderness. He traveled to the ends of the Earth and beyond, where he met Utnapishtim, the sole survivor of the great flood that almost ended the world. When he returned from his travels he wrote everything down on a tablet of lapis lazuli and locked it in a copper chest.
