Pierian Papers
Got reams of them!
e.g.:
[ The peons could not produce enough quires of papyri for such a prolific Pharaoh. ]
Just lying, strewn all over the temple turf;
Haphazard ramblings
And bizarre babblings,
Which connote more than the sum
Of those notes.
Though it's a misconception
That everything an Artiste
Commits to canvas, parchment,
Or record is worth its weight
In the mirth of Midas.
Genius is naught but misnomer
Derived from Djinn
Who might grant our wishes
Yet with certain strings attached.
Don't be overeager like Faust.
i.e.:
[ The Lord of Hosts loosed famine, plague, and war upon the people (only to end up surrounded by ghosts). ]
Written Subjects-cum-Objects!
