PROMETHEUS IN ACADEMIA

PROMETHEUS IN ACADEMIA

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


Welcome, Prometheus!
Descend upon the pillars and corridors of Academia!
Have your merriment and feasts among
The expectant adherents of your holy fire.
Illuminate the residents of Academia with your
Undying light: mana of reason and knowledge.
Awaken us to the flowering consciousness of the knower
As your light fires up the longing lamps of us all.
Remain! Linger on! Let your sacred essence be
Of the inherited Elixir of our triumphant march
Along Life’s trek!
Happy at last will be Zeus over our sublime fraternity.


[Writ. 11 November 1988, Proj. 8, Quezon City, M.Manila]
