Poem to Prometheus by Troy Caperton, 2010

A reproduction of Troy Caperton’s work, “Poem to Prometheus”, a devotional work that combines an image of the eagle sent to torment Prometheus for his having given Fire to mankind in defiance of the deathless gods.

I will sing of the sacrifice of Prometheus,
Holy Forethought who suffered for aeons
For bringing to feeble Man the gift of Fire
Which warms us all on every frozen night.
