No Theme Thursday 3

A serious love, by power poisoned

A crown of snakes is now poised on

Unrequited love determined this human’s fate

Poseidon, satisfied, a devil’s rake

Medusa suffered the consequence

Hoping his real love would commence

The god of the sea sadly used her

Jealous Athena then abused her

Now a crown of snakes sits on Medusa.

—

Gods and goddesses use powers at will

Now hear her snakes’ victims’ cries stilled

A sad story, but only a myth

No gods’ actions require pith.

Thanks Kevin!
