Archetypal Greek Gods and Goddesses

Captured beauty cast in bronze
they lived a larger life
and bore its perils plots and pain
passions fired, intrigue rife
the stage beyond the footlights bright
 scribed to us by Socrates
lives of demonry and greed
mountain tops of destiny
written into history
bearing their forever youth
immortal now in deathly truth
cant sing a eulogy, for in existence
left the myths, we play them still
transformations; all the poison bits
lost love and incest, all the worst
all the best, they Bigged it up
in wild excess, for pleasures curse
screen-writers still pick at their bones
in the shadow of a bust
try to recreate, but none can bring them
back to life, just the actors empty husk
just vain attempts that blight
a treasure trove of great celeb`s
smile from their cast, at all us PLEBS
