Image for the poem O Mighty Orion

O Mighty Orion

A furry star so damp and bright
purred with grace and simmering light.

Brushed against his heavenly belt
sprinkling her pearls above his kilt.

O Mighty Orion, cease your play.
I did not come to reminisce or stay.

You came to steal my wavering heart,
rip it out of my chest, smash it apart.

O Mighty Hunter, she wickedly gasped.
a kiss on the lips was all I asked.

I want that kiss, and for you to stay,
to hold in my arms for a night or day.

That all depends on your hardened vigil,
between your Saiph and starry Rigel.

I have what you want, a behemoth
behind a nebulous cloud of milky cloth.

I don’t believe you have what it takes
to make my Kitten moan or shake.

I will gather and wake every feline in you.
I will hunt very animal until you say “I do.”

O Mighty Lover, do not say those words.
Goddess Gaia is fond of her worldly herds.

I don’t care about any god or goddess.
I’m Poseidon’s son, and a Gorgon menace.

You have angered the lady of Earth and Land.
She will turn your ashes into stone and sand.

I only care for you and those promised nights,
where I will forever be between your thighs.  

O Poor Orion, your heart was so pure.
The wrath of a goddess you could not endure.  

You died for your insolence and earthly love.
And Zeus placed you among the stars above.

Author's Note
This is the story of the constellation Orion with a twist of course.
For those who don't know me I do have a degree in Astronomy.
Okay... I'm bragging ... But I do get to brag at least once ... okay okay once I swear I won't do it again.
