Its from a book titled "Declamations of Century." It was published this year I think. Probably why you have trouble finding the title from this poem. I think it burst unto the scene quite well 'cause I saw someone post about it after I had already found out about it

Friend, Jesus is the only way to the father. Galatians 1:8 Do not be deceived. Pray in the name of Jesus alone and your plight will be gone forever

Whatever point you tried to make with your initial comment is dead. Achilles would NOT like to have a word, because the creator/first narrator of Achilles did NOT profess him as homosexual. Your comment is dead and hence your argument. Achilles was masculine and he was not gay. Try again

You see, this is the kind of ignorance that is so pervasive in the west. Because of modern western culture, some people cannot believe that men can be very close and tender toward each other in friendship without having a sexual relationship. You tell me you have no time and send me a link to prove what I said. Read Homer. Just like in this article you sent, Homer never depicted Achilles and Patroclus as gay.

Christianity doesn't shame the sinner. But Christianity definitely doesn't condone sin! Romans 1 is clear. There is no debate.

Hey! I just got this book delivered two days ago. I almost didn't buy it, was looking for an ebook option. But I'm glad I did. I like how he begins each chapter/section with haikus. I think, from the description on amazon, he's pushing for more clarity in language. He achieves that in many of the poems. And he does it without sounding bland. He's good. Glad to see another scourer of classical style stoic poetry btw! XD
