Ianus

so tight the keys, so huge the stick

into the hand, to split the one to get the two-faced

a hermit or a demigod, the first nostril inhales omega

then the other exhales alfa

will I navigate down there?

golden bough

will I cross the roman gate?

on balance between thin devotion and frail reason,

both share the same mission,

advance towards the arch, on time of internal war,

any force, any effort, but without apparent faith

backwards to the door, when the sunlight melts the dew,

every day, every night, every era in the sign of Ianus

received as Saturn, in memory of Ianus

founder and father.

enchanting domain of tip high, the huntress sang to the pale moon

now as then, in supreme hyperspace the ear is thrown away

alphanumeric code to decipher, newest event to translate,

Di indigetes, divum empta cante, divum deo supplicate

on balance between thin devotion and frail reason,

both share the same mission,

will I navigate down there? will I cross the roman gate?

both of them will be right

advance towards the arch, on time of internal war,

any force, any effort, but without apparent faith

backwards to the door, when the sunlight melts the dew,

every day, every night, every era in the sign of Ianus

received as Saturn, in memory of Ianus

founder and father.
