“Death of the Maya”

The animals watched and listened
When the Maya appeared (1000 BC)
In the jungles of the Southern Hemisphere:

“I am
I want
And I will take…”
Said the Maya to the earth.

Fear took away peace
And then came forth war
(and battles)
And death prevailed
(it was a way of life—
in the forest))
as it is today in the world)).

And then came shame
And then came cowards
And then came rape,
And Civilization
Became torn…!

And then the Maya
Disappeared—leaving
Tajin as a remembrance.

Note: The Author visited Tajin (Mexican archeological site) in 2002, a great location to visit and perhaps meditate while visiting, on its huge grounds. Its location is in the area of Vera Cruz (Veracruz), Mexico; which is in itself a great city to visit. Actually the area between Tajin and Veracruz, perhaps a hundred miles or so, many sites within that radius; the pyramid is most unusual, in that it looks as if it has coffins, one on top of the other (or perhaps we can call them imbedded steps), that reach to an enormous heights, if climbed to the top; as big—if not bigger than, the pyramid in the Yucatan.

As one travels from the Northern Hemisphere, to the Southern, we see civilizations that can blind the mind, unquoted from the European heritage we have been force feed for 200-years. We could start at Serpent Mound, in Ohio; it dates back to 3000 BC, even the Native Americans (or Indians of that area don’t even know who built the snake like mound, built it long before they arrived). Then we go to Mexico, and from all corners of Mexico we see the Maya, extend into Central America, leaving the Aztecs to their own world, and on to the Wanka and Inca world of Peru, and South America in general: from Bolivia to Ecuador. In Peru we can name several civilizations dating back to 3000 BC (before Stonehenge in England; before the Great Pyramids of Egypt were build), especially the one that took place at Caral, about 125-miles from Lima; here are several pyramids.(I’ve been to all locations, the Americas are just being discovered, this is the time of a life time, or those looking to see history uncovered on this side of the world).
