Ere Herakles Prometheus freed
From chains and torment paid the deed
Of bringing fire to mortals frail
That they might master arts of life;<\/p>
Was not his soul thus fortified,
Who in compassion laid aside
That law of Zeus - that men shall fail
To free themselves from common strife?<\/p>
For each day did his soul fly free,
Though body bound in misery;
His penance served to justify
The value of his crime of care.<\/p>
For Zeus did fear that men with fire
Would soon beyond the gods aspire,
Surpassing them as time went by;
And mortals now are almost there.<\/p>
Prometheans shall bear the flame
And like their namesake, shoulder blame,
With knowledge that this treasure grand
Is for all men who see it clear;<\/p>
This gift of fire, which knows no race
Yet blesses each one in its place;
When nurtured with a caring hand,
Brings transformation very near.<\/p>
We vindicate Prometheus, transcending
the concerns of mere mortals, and lesser gods, when
each who is able nurtures the flame in its true spirit of striving
toward excellence, everywhere, for everyone.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
