aeschylus-longing

September 5, 2024

Because of his longing for something gone across the sea

a phantom seems to rule the rooms,

and the grace of statues shaped in beauty

comes to be an object of hate for the man.

In the absence of eyes all Aphrodite is vacant, gone.

Thought:

“When I gaze upon the sky
And the sea below, I cry,
Thus be poetry and love,
Deep beneath and bright above.”
