Satyrs on Sitars

Copyright © 2010 Ernest Bloom.


Tyros
Come to terms with their
Turns on satirical rotisseries, retesting
Whether the
Rates at which the tires spin
Are uniform and informed by
Satyrs on sitars
And their thrashing rites.

But Horus'
Torus floats down the Nile under
Shading canvas tarps, while we're all
Munching powdery
Sugared tarts.

  1. I like the way that "tyros" relates to the "satyrs on sitars" (suggesting that, perhaps, the musicians are really only novices).

    Horus. The Falcon. A lovely allusion to Egyptian Mythology.
