She was the kind of woman men dream of
she had the most beautiful exterior
like an angel that came down from heaven
but beneath that heavenly, angelic exterior
her demons and hell unleashed.

Reports about UFOs keep increasing
in the seas and in the skies
I think we are about to be visited
by the occupants of some of these
I hope their friendly extraterrestrials
and not unfriendly hostiles who talk
like this: bIjeghbe’chugh vaj bIHegh!

Mythological oddities are many
in mythologies all over the world
a woman with the body of a bird
a bird with a dog’s head
a woman with green hair
and razor sharp green teeth
a bull with a horn, like a unicorn
wronged women who died and
live in water and in birch trees
and drown men to their deaths
sometimes I wonder, who were
the imaginative individuals who
thought all these oddities up.

Bob Boyd

The head of beautiful woman
the body of a large bird
resplendent long hair, piercing eyes
dwells in a hidden, magical paradise
she’s knowledge, wisdom. prophecy
sings hymns, divine and magical
mesmerizes with her enchanting voice
she’s all-seeing and all-knowing
sees into the future, foretells future events
she’s the messenger of the Slavic gods
immortalized in stories and legends
Gamayun the seer, the wise, the beautiful.

Bob Boyd

Beautiful, benevolent Slavic goddess
spinner of golden thread
spinner of destinies
offerings of bread, honey and flowers
petitions of prayers and rituals
might invoke her to change your fate.
