The Sphinx's Invocation
O giver of life above the stars,
O beacon whose warmth soothes and blesses,
I kneel to thee,
I pledge to thee,
My body to your hot caresses.
O watchful eye aloft in heaven,
Whose smiles alone my grief redresses,
Keep back the cold,
And make me bold;
Grant me the power your light possesses.
In your glory and your might,
I need not fear the blackest blight.

The Visitor
While swimming in the sea one day,
I chanced upon a spotted ray.
He swam across the sandy bottom
Like a leaf adrift in Autumn.
"Hello," I said, "And how do you fare?"
He gazed at me with piercing stare.
"I've been by Venus just last night,
And sailed here on the morning light.
"Tomorrow I'll fly in Jupiter's ocean
To meet my wife." Then with swift motion,
He left me wondering by the bar,
His speckled back stained with stars.

Adventurous boys,
Father's best flail, hunting rats
Into the basement.
A shrine amid the wreckage;
Even rats have gods they worship.
