Aphrodite in Disguise

 
Aphrodite in disguise
rose silent from the silken sea
blinding every living creature
who happened ‘cros her path
while blazing went she
along dark alleys
past the dead and the ones
who wished they were
leaving fire in their hearts
 
they would remain in shadow
if not for beautiful hook
of lip and eye
of curve and gentle thigh
that held fast
tearing what needed tearing
so she wandered –
a cleansing sun
seeking Grecian seas
lost goddess heart
