Image for the poem ***Mortal Child***

***Mortal Child***

 
A bruised moon
hung in a Cassiopeia sky

***

The night breathe fire
as she hung from her instrument of torture

***

Watching me as the celestial turned
traversing the Earth her mortal child

***

I Look to the heavens
awaiting my mother's release

***

Bound to Cassiopeia in fate
for vanities sake

***

My beauty slowly fading
I am forced to face the mirror
watching my own demise

***

With great sorrow
I curse Poseidon
from my place of shame

***

Young men drawn to me
I must now turn them away

***

Goddess of lust
chained to my mother
forever restrained
