Egos

This work was created in January 2022. I made this after I suffered a seriously bad panic attack that nearly put me in the hospital. I want to say that it is about life but that seems a bit too serious for what it is. As of now I am not even sure if it is worth remembering. 


Egos Combined, 2022

The Mysterious Birdman of Mound 72

Cahokia, a once bustling epicenter of civilization nestled across the river from what is now known as St. Louis, is often referred to as the archaeological counterpart of ancient Jerusalem, only manifested in a tapestry of earthen mounds rather than stone structures.      An illustrious city and sacred hub of the ancient Native American civilization, Cahokia was an American beacon of light during the European 'Dark Ages'.

Nevertheless, that night he began writing the lyrics to what would become one of his most successful songs, "One More Night." The song is a melancholic reflection on the complexities of love and relationships. In my interpretation of the song, there are three possible scenarios that it could represent. The first scenario is that of unrequited love, where a man has failed to express his true feelings to the person he loves. He is contemplating giving up on the idea of being with her after "one more night" and moving on with his life. ...

Roman Nursery Rhymes: This the Bridge of Hero's

As mentioned in an earlier post, I've been working on a collection of poems about ancient Rome, and I want to share them here to showcase my progression. These poems are geared towards a younger audience, like storybooks or vocabulary books. I'm taking Roman myths and true stories and turning them into fun and accessible texts for kids. In this post, I'll be sharing the second poem in the series, so let's dive in and explore the story of Horatius Cocles together. This is the second post of this type; I will include a link to the first at the bottom of the page. Now the poem... *** This the Bridge of Hero's 2022 Once upon a time there was a Kingdom called Rome. It was a place anyone could come and make friends and call home. The King there was kindly, wise and sage, The only trouble was in his old age. Then one day the good old king did die, and his son ‘Lucius’ became king, and he was not a good guy.
