Uncle History
Knows all the Gods
Mithra
His favorite
Divinity of contracts
Protector of truth
Guardian of cattle
Who watched the sun
Rise and set
The cypress trees
Wave
The heavens turn
Uncle likes
A god of good cheer
Striding
The riverbank
All observing
He remembers
Lesser ones too—
Athena
Pulling the petals
From daisies
“Zeus loves me
He loves me not…”
And Itzamná
The Mayan
Missing some teeth
Who adored science—
They were
Also pleasant
Planet of the Blind
