6. Okeanos (3:58)
And a tenth part of Okeanos
is given to dark night
a tithe of the pure water under earth
so the clear fountains pour from the rock face
stream from the caverns and clefts
down-running, carving wondrous ways
basalt resistance, cutting deep as they go
gaia where she sleeps
the cold water, the black rushing gleam,
the moving, down-rush, Wash, gush out
over bed-rock,toiling the boulders in flood,
purling in deeps, broad flashing in falls.
and a tenth part of bright clear Okeanos
his circulations - mists, rains, sheets, sheathes
black water - poisonous depths -
Styx this carver of caverns beneath us is.
the well is deep. from it's stillness
the words our voices speak
echo
resonance follows resonance
waves of this sounding come up to us
we draw the black water pure and cold
the light of day is not as bright
three thousand years
we have recited its virtue out of Hesiod
Styx this black water, this down-pouring
is it twenty-five thousand years
since the ice withdrew
from the lands and we came forth
from the realm of caverns
where the river beneath the earth we knew
we go back to.
fifty million years
from the beginning of what we are-
we knew the depth of this well to be
fifty million years deep
but our knowing deepends
time deepens
this still water
styx pouring down in the spring
from it's glacial remove
from the black ice
we thirst for in dreams we dread.
is given to dark night
a tithe of the pure water under earth
so the clear fountains pour from the rock face
stream from the caverns and clefts
down-running, carving wondrous ways
basalt resistance, cutting deep as they go
gaia where she sleeps
the cold water, the black rushing gleam,
the moving, down-rush, Wash, gush out
over bed-rock,toiling the boulders in flood,
purling in deeps, broad flashing in falls.
and a tenth part of bright clear Okeanos
his circulations - mists, rains, sheets, sheathes
black water - poisonous depths -
Styx this carver of caverns beneath us is.
the well is deep. from it's stillness
the words our voices speak
echo
resonance follows resonance
waves of this sounding come up to us
we draw the black water pure and cold
the light of day is not as bright
three thousand years
we have recited its virtue out of Hesiod
Styx this black water, this down-pouring
is it twenty-five thousand years
since the ice withdrew
from the lands and we came forth
from the realm of caverns
where the river beneath the earth we knew
we go back to.
fifty million years
from the beginning of what we are-
we knew the depth of this well to be
fifty million years deep
but our knowing deepends
time deepens
this still water
styx pouring down in the spring
from it's glacial remove
from the black ice
we thirst for in dreams we dread.
