Myth Haikus

Thoth
 
Scroll of stars unfolds,
wisdom flows through measured time.  
Eye records it all.
 
Gilgamesh
 
Walls rise to the sky,  
friendship forged, yet doomed to fade.
Mortals seek their name.
 
Tupă
 
Thunder splits the night,  
roaring whispers through the storm.
Creation takes breath.
 
Amaterazu
 
Hidden in her cave,  
sunlight fades, the world grows cold.  
Hope draws her to dance.
 
Shango
 
Drums thunder the sky,  
lightning splits the heavens wide.  
In his power reigns.
 
Quetzalcoatl
 
Feathered serpent flies,
bringing wisdom, life and light.  
Cycles turn anew.
 
Morana
 
Winter’s icy breath,  
a goddess’ shadow descends.  
Life yields, death awaits.
 
Igaluk
 
Moonlight trails his path,  
chasing the sun through the sky.  
Eternal longing.
 
Apollo
 
Golden lyre resounds,  
prophecy and light converge.  
As the sun ascends.
 
Loki
 
Shifting flames take shape,  
Trickster weaves chaos with smiles.  
Sneaky shadows play.
