Raven
by Evelyn Rainey
Raven
My
dog Raven
Foundling,
changeling
Ancient
God.
Like
Hercules, his muscles
Bulge and strain with
Graceful pleasures.
In
defense, his teeth like
Titans against Ulysses.
His
tongue, like water-nymphs,
Playful and loving.
The
Ennui Raven-god loaned him
His colors and name
And humor.
Zeus in Anger.
Apollo in Gentleness
Bacchus in Joy
Athena in a Race
Like
Volkan’s bellows, he lies
At my feet and
Smiles his Cupid’s darts.
Like
Janus, he will age
And die and be replaced
Again.

The Last Amen
by Evelyn Rainey
The Last Amen
I will praise You
As long as
there are stars in the sky.
I will love You
As long as
the ocean roars.
I will serve You
As long as
the forests have trees.
I will praise You
Until the
very last Amen.
You knew me before I was formed in the womb
And you saw me running before I could crawl.
You gave me a voice to sing and so I’ll praise your Name
Until the
very last Amen.
I will praise You
As long as
there are children in the world.
I will love You
As long as
the rains fall.
I will serve You
As long as
the deserts have sand.
I will praise You
Until the
very last Amen.
