The Lost Millennium

[A short-run larger-than-life nursery rhyme]

In a recess of the world

There was a come to rest named Sumer

Whose vocaliser sometime reached...

The Euphrates vale and the

Syrian desert, its giant plateau,

As a result, the mud of two federal streams

Created a delta, beside a unforgiving sun

But loaded was the soil, as anywhere

On dirt...and God created man

And man present made his home:

This was the beginning, diversified

By marshes and reed-beds,

Rivers go red beside their botanist...

After the Great Flood, retreating

Waters and cultivating took spot.

Hence, into Sumer the giants of old

Went, degreed a civilization, among

The brunette individuals...sporadically

Circumstances would advance communal team spirit.

And there was Susa, Musyan, Elam

And the Persian Gulf-Mesopotamia;

And Queen shub-ad created style, and

Pottery formed, and temples were dropped.

And kings came and left, similar King

Gilgamish; and gum came, metallic vases,

And imperial robert ranke graves at UR, and the

Sumerian hymn, and they hummed

To the gods; and the villagers wore

Garments of sheepskins, and molded

Clay figurines, stridently chipped

From crystal, they wore necklaces

Of this kind, and beads;

This was the mislaid period of time.

They reflection in some manner or another,

Virtue was a necessity for the gods, thus

Came sacrifices and the regular ritual,

And spells that bind, hoping to remain engaged

To sustenance their favor, feast-days came and went,

Animals killed like flies, barbarism, yet

It drew the gods, and mans fair sensitivity.

Prompt, the gods exercised their power,

And man consequently started to create statues

To their likeness,

And now human human action recovered its way,

With tricks from the dismembered saintly beings,

Those who gave first to jumbo children, and

So it was, an unexpected development came.

Astrology was born, Sumerians now ruled

The skies; physics erudition came

From the gods, and the gods (angelic beings)

Came from the sky: faith beings.

Mesopotamia came lower than Sumerian rule,

And Ur, Lagash and Nippur prestigious the

Moon-god, and next came more public building complex.

And it became the Sacred Way,

And the walls of the Ziggurat [Temples]

Were built, sanctuaries, beside an innermost court,

And doors decorated, narrowing chambers,

The consecrated of holies, shrines, religious vessels;

It was an colourful development...

This day and age...platforms, brickwork, statues

Gods and goddesses, oil-jars; a lost kinfolk.
