As Homer saw without seeing Beauty
Human leaves were shorn by Almighty Whim
No one might think otherwise or decay
for why Prometheus was gone away--
his wings molten yet flying nose first then
spiralling downward caught in his hubris
then Agamemnon arose with his Woes
for which no form but Epithet chose
He who laughs louder than all of us - Zeus -
after killing the Gods of his Ancients.
But Helen of course paces as anxious
now being a captive and symbol lust
of Warring as Unadventurous sports
of Slavers, Half-Gods, Cannibals and worse.
