Those Greeks, Eh?


.
.

.

Before our esteemed and "Patron" Greeks 
I'd learned that we were "primitive."  
I'd gathered we should "climb their peak," 
but that "training" seems inhibitive
No, we're "Archaic" and "non-sophistic" 
to begin our hoary line—
a thin broken line in a well-broken chain 
from *those* who were "backward..." 
...to the Greek more "refined"?
.
Said Greeks were from "a Golden Age" 
so, "golden,"—brainy—sods! 
*Invented*! The "Philosophy," 
projecting "themes" abroad! 
...Like they were, themselves
the "sun source," eh?  
The shining "knees" of "bees"! 
Proud nadirs of true "science"! 
The wisest, then, you see?  
Well, remembering I'm "paying freight"
... requiring meat and bone!
...I am here to question those 
who'd set our culture's tone!
.
From Greeks 
we had *descended* (?), then, 
to fly toward the sun
to wander many planets
our 'journey' just begun?
.
..."The Greeks provided provenance
their 'vision'—mental clarity"? 
That's a thought which may provide... 
for unsurpassed hilarity! 
The Grecian "mind," that nascent "root"
which we purport to treasure: 
a high-water mark (?) 
for a pride overweening... 
so contrived and over-measured?
.
"Forgive our proud Greeks 
the mistakes that they made," 
my teachers all said... 
...so they all could get paid! 
"...Before them was "ignorance" 
as wide as a river 
with 'witches' and 'faeries' 
and 'magic' embroiled. 
The Greeks gave us 'reason' 
to focus our culture..."
Though! ...Remember how "talent," 
by "culture," is spoiled..."!
.
Yes, perhaps, they're digressing 
and missing the point
Perhaps it's their outlook's askew—
out of joint
.
Perhaps, not advancing
Greeks side-stepped our issues, 
abused their cognition—
so darkness continued... 
...When then appeared Augustine
exploiting that weakness!  
He'd turn us from "learning" 
to "darkness" and "bleakness"!
.  
And lo, we descended 
to madness undreamed
the Dark Ages loomed... 
and then swallowed us clean.  
That suffering's legend, 
beyond even Hell
—as we were misled
so, I'm ringin' that bell!
.
See, the Greeks were not "golden," 
but reflecting old light 
from that which preceded 
their cognitive blight...  
...which begins with a student of Plato, 
I'm taught—
Aristotle: the "sun source 
of reason and thought..." 
And he merely echoed 
his "picking" and "choosing" 
of what was provided 
his "self-involved" musings; 
his wisdom had come 
from some "little black folks...
...who white men are loath 
to admit to... or choke!
.
...And his was a view that, 
to him, made all *sense*
that we were the *top*—
that we're HUMANS, and since... 
we "ARE" at the "top" 
and the "crown of creation"... 
(...at the "center of 'spheres'
hollow crystal concretions!), 
...that we've "earned" our "right" 
to be specialaloof... 
that we are the favorites of *God*!!!  
In.  *His.*  *Truth*!
.
Before this? We're "taught", 
we were lawless and primitive; 
blood, tooth, and claw 
was our ghastly derivative!
Mankind was "lost," 
he would dwell in dank caves; 
he'd be brutal and shiftless
and he'd stink a foul way? 
Bereft all the data when 
women held court?* 
The lives of our humankind 
were brutish, and... short?
.
The *beauty* of chivalry (rofl!) 
"was yet to be born," 
and man was "untamed" 
and "immoral—forlorn"? 
"His knowledge was "faulty, 
and likely dead wrong"! 
His "plentiful ignorance
was "stridently strong."
.
"Thank God for the Greeks (?), 
and the thoughts that they had"? 
"Our beginnings were Greek (?), 
before THAT we're quite mad"?
.
Never brought up—
they but copied their stories 
from a dim hoary past 
they'd "forgot" (...to dodge fear?). 
They "spun" what they "copped to," 
dismissing the rest 
as the ranting of those 
they refused... but to hear!
.
Man had old knowledge 
the Greeks thought was wrong; 
"the musings of primitives"; 
they'd pass that on, strong... 
so, we hear "reports" 
from the "corners" in shadow, 
and truth is obscured
disavowed... but foreshadowed!
.
See... ...how could these KNOW 
that the sun was self-centered? 
How could these KNOW 
that Twelve Planets were there? 
How could these KNOW 
that a belt of accretion 
existed past Mars 
towards Jupiter, mon frere?
.
How did these know 
the true colors of planets? 
Neptune was "green," 
and Uranus was "blue." 
How did these know 
of their similar nature, 
components of water—
near "twins" they are (!), TRUE!
.
"Primitive" man had the facts
 made forgotten 
by he who would spin 
a coarse weave of proud lies! 
*Primitive* man knew some facts 
of the cosmos 
compelling humility 
the Greeks don't provide!
.
Lost in the drifts 
of a hoary old time 
is the proof of anomaly
fearsome—sublime—
that long, long ago...
in an eon-dimmed past...
there were Giants on Earth, and, yes! 
We were outclassed!
Most will fall short 
in the pretense they're Gods
but they slept with our daughters, friend, 
and they gave these their prods... 
...and these were our Mothers 
created to WORK—
not to worship or fawn 
or be less than alert.
.
These Giants want LABOR 
t'would further their ends, 
and we were a "means," 
so they used us my friend... 
in a manner to teach us 
some stuff which they knew... 
about planets, and systems, 
and the craft they flew, too!
.
These are the records 
as writ by Sumerians... 
from ages on back to a time... 
... lostmysterious!
.
...All of it's gone, then, 
for thousands of years! 
The Greeks "put it down" 
as the proof of their fear, 
and then left us traditions 
for systems (Earth-centered!) 
that lasted too long, 
so we stumbled and splintered!
.  
...Then he, "sensing weakness," 
discounted the sages... 
he turned us from "learning" 
to the darkest, dark ages...
.
These are the thoughts 
that we run from today! 
Too, we are at peril...
could be flushed straight away 
by the first cosmic strike
—some galactic affair—
to smother our fate 
sans compassion or care!
...Or by something more tiny 
we're brought to our knees? 
The extinction of fauna, say—
froggies or... bees... 
but laid to waste, bare... 
then extinct at the last... 
because our attention 
was lost in tall ass!
.
...As written in clay, 
it is clear and decipherable, 
beyond mere coincidence... 
the things that "they knew..." 
which they wrote down for us 
in their "wedge pokes" and "slashes"
... that we've disregarded, 
or laughed at... ...all TRUE!

*Gylany! It may be the sole taproot of our societal salvation! Learn it. Know it. Live it. Love it.
