What to say about Uranus without reverting to puerile jokes about rear orifices?

Oh how the Artist suffers when the Muses remains silent and implacable!

Uranus Uranus!
Frustrating and vexing, thy very name doth pain us.
how its rhymelessness now fails to entertain us!
it is too divine, and we are too mundane, us...
for we are lost for words, us earth-bound wordless complainers

ARRRRRRGH a pox to thee, o father of the Greek Panteon!
Would that I had a sickle myself, you unpoetically named son of a...well what, exactly? Who was Uranus' father? Where the hell did he come from? Seems like no single religion or mythos has ever given much thought to the issue of how the beginning of all things actually began...so I'm assuming Uranus, as befitting for his name, sprang forth from dung.

Dayum now I really did stoop down to ass-jokes. Woe is me, woe is me!

I vaguely remember a story about Gaia and Eros.... but then that leaves the question as to what caused Gaia and Eros to be.

Oh no you didn'n :O

I agree on both the ill-naming of said god, as well as the problematic issues of his origin.

Eros is Ares and Aphrodite's child isn't he? That'd make Gaia his Grandma then I suppose :D

Yea, I was surprised to hear that story about Eros and Gaia. I guess Greek mythology/theology isn't quite consistent.

You're gonna have to tell me story though, since I can't recall it myself.

I don't remember much more except than what I already mentioned above: That the great mother Gaia gave birth to all gods (or the cosmos?) under influence of Eros, the everlasting love.
