Planet Venus a Woman In Its True Sense

Viciously, infernally incredibly hot, is its dominance
Excitedly referred to as ‘Women come from Venus”,
Naturally, Roman Goddess of beauty and love, ingenious,
Unsure of falling in love with Venus, no water I fear,
Seduced by folklore, don’t become a foolish Pioneer!

Two Venus actually, one Greek, one Roman. I like the Greek one more because she was refined. But some like it hot :)
