[ Myth Appropriated ] I've fallen from Olympus and can't get up

     
Jealousy    
is an ugly bitch    
Doesn't know which hand to wipe
her ass with --- pre-occupied in  
posting, texting, tweeting; hashtag  
hag dishing the cyberbeating    
     
Green-eyed Graeae of one obsessed  
in unseating the latest dancing queen  
There's no end to those lovely Graces  
and their rhythmic charms hitting
the poetry circuit scene    
     
Feigning injurious harms    
determined to reclaim public acclaim
and only throne she's ever known    
lost due to no one else's fault      
other than her own actions  
spiteful and mean   
     
Jealousy      
is a hydra with many unpleasant    
faces conveniently reared    
in the most public of places    
---hand to a forehead    
watch the drama whore unfold    
fall to the floor    
play the role of victim    
     
Oh, the Humanities of it all    
---the world's her stage    
     
You've got mail    
more evidence of the bully's    
keyboarded rage    
     
#EpicFail
