The diction of the dictator was
Forged in the Phoenician fire.
Words of the ancestral smith and what they mean to us
Is riddled in what they did conspire.
Dead linguists still speaking
From the cryptographic crypt
Offer us origins of word's first teaching,
Showing us signs in their hands gripped.
Voices of the mountains
And the sweet canopy
Were like lyrical fountains
For man to echo eternally.
Savage tongues turned silver
As we drank from the primordial elixir.
Hello and welcome to my humble abode, my writer's workshop. Here you will find a fair deal of poetry, do not be alarmed. I will try not to bore you, for here is a collection of my favorite poems, here are my thoughts and fantasies, born from conversations and impressions, dreams and sometimes just the simple things. I enjoy writing these poems as much as I see that you are interested in reading them. So thank you so much for stopping by and enjoy. -Dan L. Biggin
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling.
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven,
And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen
Turns them to shapes, and gives airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.
-W.Shakespeare
