Good thing there was a Nike too Imagine 'Nikeus' on a shoe.

A great story poem, brilliantly penned and well deserved modern poem of the Day.

And Pindar, poet of the Olympian and Isthmian And Pythian games, wrote also of the boundless And forgetful savannas of time. What is someone? The chorus sing in a victory ode—What is a nobody? great poem indeed. tony

Pindar, poet of the victories, fitted names And legends into verses for the chorus to sing: Names recalled now only in the poems of Pindar: the very first verses reveal a lot. tony

Fitted names! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

Creatures of a day, they chant in answer, Creatures Of a day. So where is the godgiven glory Pindar says Settles on mortals? —Bright as gold among the substances, Say the chorus, paramount as water among the elements.
