HONORS (HAIKU)

 

Has all the powers

Does what ever he wants to

To satisfy him

 

Enkidu was made

He lives in the wilderness

With the animals

 

A Hunter spooks him

The Hunter rushes back home

To tell his father

 

The father tells him

He may not hunt anymore

The father tells him

 

That he must visit Uruk

And ask Gilgamesh for a 

Temple Prostitute

 

Grants him the powers

To face mighty Enkidu

The animals run

 

Enkidu tells him

That Gilgamesh is stronger

And he is his friend

 

 

 

SONG (LET IT GO) STANDARD:

His cheeks were bearded, his hair grew thick

with his mighty crown on top

 

A kingdom of walls and towers

and it looks like he’s the king

 

This poem is 4 thousand years old, set in uruk

Why do we still read, a story of some guy

 

Well it tells the tale, of two great men, that tests their friendship and their bond.

From wild to man, from tyrant to king….

And they areeeee

 

Gilgamesh

Enkidu

We’ll face the unstoppable death

Even though, humans die,

We a race will carry on

 

In the face of death, we will stay strong, even when Enkidu is gone, his memory will live on through history.

 

The Gods are dangerous, they play with peoples fate.

They can give help, but watch out, make sure to tread lightly on the ground

 

Then the Gods unleashed the greatest flood in Gilgamesh.

To remind the humans that, you must bow and fear the Gods!!!

 

Gilgamesh

Enkidu

We’ll face the unstoppable death

Even though, humans die,

We a race will carry on
