Alexander the Great Exhibit

Alexander the Great Exhibit    
   
Grecian urn displayed in a glass case    
Under soft but insistent light    
Whose pottery is embossed    
With Apollo pursuing Daphne    
With rod still risen    
To defy millennia of censorship    
A curious maiden turns my head    
While she explores the scene    
We share our voyeur’s gaze    
Her eyes travel the length    
Of his Apollonian manhood    
Giving rise to my own response    
Her fascination for the anatomical detail    
Becomes my piquancy    
For this celestial muse, I call Celeste    
Until her poise of Hellenic Greece    
She sends my Argonaut on a quest    
To weave the wool of her golden fleece
