RE: I am the God of Wine and this is my poem to Civilization.

Are you Familiar with Dionysius the Areopagite ?
Supernal Triad, Deity above all essence, knowledge and goodness; Guide of Christians to Divine Wisdom; direct our path to the ultimate summit of your mystical knowledge, most incomprehensible, most luminous and most exalted, where the pure, absolute and immutable mysteries of theology are veiled in the dazzling obscurity of the secret Silence, outshining all brilliance with the intensity of their Darkness, and surcharging our blinded intellects with the utterly impalpable and invisible fairness of glories surpassing all beauty.

Let this be my prayer; but do, dear Timothy, in the diligent exercise of mystical contemplation, leave behind the senses and the operations of the intellect, and all things sensible and intellectual, and all things in the world of being and nonbeing, that you may arise by unknowing towards the union, as far as is attainable, with it that transcends all being and all knowledge. For by the unceasing and absolute renunciation of yourself and of all things you may be borne on high, through pure and entire self-abnegation, into the superessential Radiance of the Divine Darkness

The words of this philosopher and christian saint are worth to receive my maenads' chant!! That's the mystery of Trinity, wich always result in One. This is dificult to comprehend, even for the sharpest minds!! Let's forget of the senses, we need to see through our hearts!!! Thanks to you, my dear friend!! Evoé!!!
