[ CC ] Monsters
You must look Medusa in the eyes
and becoming stone, take pity on her---
for she was not born, but made a monster
What other choices do the Gods proffer?
By using her ugliness to slay a Kraken
you become hardened in heart as well
Treat her as you would an enemy or friend
but if she is only to be a means to an end
then you have not learned your lesson
and risk losing your pretty little head
to the next Perseus that comes along
