α, Coveted

α, Coveted

by Ellen Grace

Blessèd of the gods

belovèd of wisdom

survivor of defilement

Your monstrosity recognised:

a gaze that still turns men

to stone, luscious locks

that no man would see you cut

Athena did not touch you.

Artemis reclines on a bed

of your hair, surrounded

by daughters who would kill

for your gift.
