Khairete! Salvete!
My name is Origen Iuventius Kamberis Chlodooualdos. Welcome to the Sebasteion, my online home away from home, which is primarily oriented around my cultic practice with the Theoi Sebastoi/Divi Imperii (deified Roman Emperors) within the religion of Byzantine Paganism. As a Byzantine Pagan I also serve as one of the priests of the Sebastoi within the Classical Church of Byzantium Novum.
I am a “cis” male of 26, and have been ‘working with’ (I know, I know) the Divine Emperors for the last twelve or so years — about as long as the revived Empire itself has been around. If you’re curious as to what exactly I mean by “deified Roman Emperors” up there, by the way, you can read this. I am also oathed to the Emperors as a godslave — like godspouses, but bet— different.
I don’t believe in DNIs as I reserve the right to mock goons and their nonsense; including but not limited to racialists, radicals, and people who whine about the colonialist proclivities of the Roman Empire. The sole exception to this is persons — and they do exist — who dismiss, profane, or insult the Imperial Cult writ large. Such persons will be castigated bitterly and then blocked.
Pax et bonum!

The Keeping Room
G.E. Patterson
(for FR)
1
After the pain of one thing you found
another less sharp it tickled
the hurt you kept company
to feel again so you
could go on without
really moving
one more time
from this
and
2
On the way to the island what happened
receded like the shoreline you knew
it grew smaller but you didn’t
find or try or think or see
a way to keep the scale
as it had been before.
Things happened. That’s no:
no revelation.
It’s not sealed.
But still—
oh.
3
The green light Rohmer wrote of in that film
what did it mean? Can you remember
anything more than the hopeful
expression fading from each
character… is a dream
the grass blown against
the source… is it
that or that
we wake
yet
4
Sisyphean levity we said our
joy cresting as we turned outside out
ourselves our happiest moments
in rooms four-or five-sided
by air and earth and trees
we hold that sometimes
flatteringly
together
us two
now
5
Let’s make a prairie one beautiful thing
we will have to remember again
our agreement to make a way
out of what we are given
the uprooting terror
of our undoing. First
cut what has been
living here
cut it
down
6
Today everything you love weeps and leans
its metaphoric arms to the ground
pendula pendula the trees
take their shape from their parents
even the peashrub sprawls
outward and downward.
Today’s a day
for sitting
down, yes?
Oh
7
No one has come to tell us what we want
to hear is hardly the wondrous thing
existence is though we wonder
whether each opening takes
will take us further on
from from to into
from from to to
from from yes
from from
from
8
Chores enough for days and days enough for
whatever we might want time to do
days sweep and cower under breath
sleeping under the daylight
bower rocking in wind
we are the baby
the baby cries
what it wants
it wants
then
#There’s a roughly triangular shape to each section of this poem. That winnowing shape reflects the diminishing number of syllables#in the lines and sets up a kind of lurch and drift in the poem’s syntax and rhythms.#The unsteadiness is a way of conveying the effort of articulating and of understanding ideas#of home and personal freedom and ecological concern#The numbered sections are part of that too: a way of implying continuity and discontinuity.#G.E. Patterson#The Keeping Room#poets.org

1866 Memphis Massacre
On May 1, 2, and 3, 1866, mobs of white men led by law enforcement attacked black people in the areas near South St. (aka Calhoun & G.E. Patterson). By the end of the attack, the mob had killed an estimated 46 black people; raped several black women; and committed numerous robberies, assaults and arsons. A congressional investigative committee reported that four churches, twelve schools and 91 other dwellings were burned. Although no one was ever prosecuted for this massacre, it became a rallying cry in the battle over the nation's reconstruction following the Civil War. Ultimately, the outrage that followed the massacre helped to ensure the adoption of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution.

Walter Hawkins
Walter Lee Hawkins (May 18, 1949 – July 11, 2010) was an American gospel music singer, and a pastor. He was consecrated to the bishopric in 1992.
Biography
Hawkins was the brother of Edwin Hawkins, Daniel Hawkins (Marcia), Feddie Hawkins Smith, Carol Hawkins Kemp and Lynette Hawkins-Stephens. Bishop Hawkins was married to Tramaine Hawkins, they had two children, a son Walter "Jamie" Hawkins, Jr., who is married to Myiia "Sunny" Davis-Hawkins, and a daughter Trystan Hawkins. Bishop Hawkins also had a granddaughter, Jahve Neru Deana Hawkins, and a grandson, Jamie Daniel Hawkins.
Bishop Hawkins started his career in one of his brother's chorales, "The Northern California State Youth Choir" of the Church of God in Christ. Later, he accompanied his brother Edwin and founded The Edwin Hawkins Singers. This collaborative effort produced the hit song "Oh Happy Day", which became one of the first gospel songs to cross over onto mainstream music charts.
Walter Hawkins left The Edwin Hawkins Singers in the early 1970s to establish the Love Center Church in Oakland, California. He and his Love Center Choir had considerable success with their "Love Alive" series of recordings, which sold well over a million copies from the 1970s through the 1990s. "Love Alive IV", released in 1990, was No. 1 on the Billboard Gospel Album charts, where it stayed for 33 weeks. In all, Walter Hawkins produced and/or collaborated on 116 hit songs which were listed on the Billboard Gospel Music charts.
Walter Hawkins and his groups were frequent musical collaborators, and recorded with Van Morrison, Diahann Carroll, Sylvester, Jeffrey Osborne, among many others.
One of those who regularly attended the Love Center church was Sylvester, who had been introduced to it in the early 1980s by Jeanie Tracy.
Death
On July 11, 2010, Walter Hawkins died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 61 in his house in Ripon, California.
