  • Tamil Sangams

    The Tamil Sangams or Cankams were assemblies of Tamil scholars and poets that, according to traditional Tamil accounts, occurred in the remote past. Scholars believe that these assemblies were originally known as kooṭam or gathering. which was also a name for Madurai. Three assemblies are described. The legend has it that the first two of which were held in cities since "taken by the sea", and the third of which was held in the present-day city of Madurai. The word sangam has its mention in the sense of an 'academy' in several Tamil literary works like Tevaram, Thiruvilayadal puranam, periyapuranam and Irayanar Ahaporul. Also legend has it that Nammazwar's Thiruvaimozhi was approved in an assembly of 300 poets.

    The Sangam period extended from roughly 350 BC to 300 AD (early chola period before the interregnum), when the earliest extant works of Tamil literature were created (also known as Sangam literature). However, the name Sangam and the associated legends probably derive from a much later period. Whilst the accounts of first two Sangams are generally rejected as ahistorical, some modern scholars, such as Kamil Zvelebil, find a kernel of truth in them, suggesting that they may be based on one or more actual historical assemblies. Others reject the entire notion as infactual. Nevertheless, legends of the Sangams played a significant role in inspiring political, social, and literary movements in Tamil Nadu in the early 20th century.

    Snake Em

    by: Hunter City Madness

    Tie one on and on
    Lines are drawn
    Oh the road is long but I been gone
    Even longer
    Poison's only
    Getting stronger
    And it's lonely in the time of the monsters
    Oh the night is coming down
    The road just winds around
    One night in town that's all we need
    Take a bow, get on your knees
    We tore down the world
    Called it a war
    A blood-sport for short
    Call it what you will
    But just lay still as the sound of the first assault cradles you to sleep
    Sleep of the dammed, god damn it man
    We play for keeps
    Now is the time snake em till they die
    Snarling then collision ever so proficient
    Catering and tripping through the fires of attrition
    Choke on, your last words
    Broke down, in the dirt
    Nobody move
    Still everyone gets hurt
    Well well well it seems I've struck a nerve
    The dark horse rides again into oblivion
    I'd rather meet the end dripping in sin
    Smile on my face, bottle in hand
    Staggering into the Promised Land
    Come join me now....
    We've fallen fast asleep at the wheel
    Hell is hot on our heels
    Damn
    I'm not an animal
    But you gone and forced my hand, to seek revenge
    The best I can do, dull the pain for you
    A poor man's saving grace, a bottle and a pill to chase
    The sunset like John Wayne
