Our Antikythera Mechanisms

 

Chariots of the odds and ends of life

Wooden boxes of bronze mechanisms

By which we navigate the memories

Of all the golden islands of our youth

 

The hidden anchorages of lost love

And barefoot beaches of youth’s innocence

Beneath bright sunlit hills of wild must grapes

That taste of our desires in dreaming hours

 

All lost, alas, fallen into the sea

The sea of remembrance, eternally
