In Celebration of Centaurs
Unlike all the others
Chiron was descended from Cronus.
Half - brother to Zeus.
He was blessed with immortality
And gifted with skills in
Astronomy and medicine.
He was a prophet
Seen by many at the wisest of all.

Unlike all the others
Chiron was worthy of celebration.
He used his gifts to assist
He taught others his knowledge
So that the world could evolve.

Unlike the others
He was no savage beast
Made wild by wine
The others ran havoc
Through the forest of Thessaly.
Forcing themselves on females.
Those I cannot celebrate.
