Io's Song

Poetry. Middle Eastern Studies. IO'S SONG is poem, energy field, myth, and autobiographical essay. It is "signatures' colors." As the author states near the end of the work, Myth is not a narrative applied, but dis-covered. The narrative that emanates against our will revealing ITSELF, A VIOLENT LIGHT that descends and leaves. Every myth is an arrival and escape, departure which in truth is death. This is due to the nature of words, their will to metamorphoze themselves from meaning to meaning, AS BEEING, crossing boundaries across human will, human reason or human culture, seeing ourselves thru the mirror of language as a reflection, willess, bobbing on the alien surface (facade) of words, ceding to insanity to plumb its depths.
