Musings of the Mad

Cronus ruled the Golden Age

The Earth and the Whole Cosmos

Born of Gaia. Born a sage.

A Prophecy from Patmos:

His reign would be cut short, ‘twas said,

A son would be his death.

So Cronus ate his childrens’ heads

Then he spit out the rest.

Rhea saved the youngest one

Zeus, she hid away.

On Crete, he grew much stronger.

He prepared for just the day.

Then Zeus could wait no longer.

Found his father and he made

Him disgorge all his siblings, 

Overthrew him, unafraid.
