Goddess on the Hunt

 
Never cross a deity
Never tempt one into ire
For there will be consequences
Don’t get caught in their temper’s fire

It is said that when Zeus’ headache was so severe
He received a blow from an axe right to the head
And out sprang Athena, beautiful and fully grown
In body armor and a spear, ready – forging ahead

Goddess on the Hunt
Goddess of wisdom
So beautiful and strong
Virgin and pure
Chaste and secure
Of the judgment she casts upon

She turned Medusa into a monster
Arachne into a spider
Never disrespect a Goddess
And under no circumstance ever try her

She shares wisdom with true warriors
She blesses those who are brave
Beautiful Goddess on the hunt
To thee I offer this ode and pray
