An elegy for the Titan Atlas

  He chose to turn against his own children

  The Olympians he failed to surpass

  He was tasked with upholding all heaven

  Who would dare defy the Olympians

  Their power magnificent and fearful

  Titans’s plan doomed to all oblivions

  For who can question the all powerful?

  But despite the most great of punishments

  Atlas takes this burden with dignity

  The heavens crush men with damned abasements

  Atlas holds the skies for humanity

  There is much to question about a life

  But despite many faults he hath trodden

  He still took on the magnitude of strife

  Tell me friend, what can you say you have done?
