Greek Gods And Goddesses Poetry Project.
Alright, here we go. First up, Chaos. Hopefully, you like it!
*****
Chaos.
Before time itself,
Before order or
The existence of any creature,
Thought or beating heart.
A spinning, black
Mass of silence.
It was chaos, without noise, fear or war.
Lips pressed
Together, no words said.
But Chaos existed without these things.
Quite the contradiction, but
Nevertheless, it was simply
There, for an immeasurable amount of time.
Chaos was running free,
Laughing, Rejoicing in the
Disorder, but he grew sad when he realized that
There was nobody to witness it.
The darkness swirled and condensed.
Out of this mass
Hatched Eros, Nyx, Erebus, Gaia and Tartarus.
The void was now filled with material things:
Desire, Night, Darkness, Earth and an Abyss.
They needed a way of life, an objective,
A purpose.
Order was formed from this need,
Much to the fury of Chaos.
But these needs were undeniable;
Chaos was chased away.
But, still live in fear, because
Chaos still waits, listens, and watches
For moments when material ideas and thoughts;
Logic and Reasoning
Fails
To exist.
Chaos reigns for a moment, when everything else seems
Lost.
And he revels in it.

Author's Note:
As you could probably tell, Chaos was the Greek God of Disorder and Conduct. He was the first thing to exist, when nothing else existed. It's very similar to other creation-myths, where something appeared out of nothing. :)
What do you think? :) Review please!
My computer is acting up right now, so I'm sorry if I don't post anything for awhile. I'll try to be frequent on updating this. :)
