ANTHROPOMORPHIC

I've seen many statue parts like Ozimandius
In the ruined temples at Baalbeck
Stone garlands of grapes at temple Baccus
Which surround the Wine God's Neck

Passing mile stones o'er in Germany
Route marching on the ancient Roman Way
Where the ruined tombs of Legion Warriors
Bedecked Roman God's, once on display

I have seen Greek and Roman Deities
In museums around the world
And seen those beautiful marble tresses
Carvings of ancient Goddess curls

Human forms with human attributes
Ascribed to those marble non-human beings
Ancient God-like anthropomorphic carvings
Worshipped by both commoners and Kings
