Pandora's Box

Zeus was very angry, So he devised a plan. A way to punish all mankind, To take the blood of man. He created a woman, Perfect in every way. She was blessed with many gifts, She would make man pay. Among the things that she'd been given, There was a box in her possession. She'd been warned not to lift the lid, She tried to do so in discretion. Many horrors bounded out, She tried to close the chest. But was impossible to do, And the world was put to test. Anger, greed, and lust, Were among the things departed. But hope also left that box, To heal the broken-hearted.
