The Truth About Artemis
I shot a bow and arrow
I didn't kill a sparrow
Hit target on first buy
righteous twas bulls-eye
I did not hunt for deer
though I kept one near
There is a misconception
concerning my reputation
For one I don't shape-shift
not a holy type of gift
No harm done to Orion
no heads of the Mayan
I am mentioned in the Bible
as revered and not tribal
I condone not being worshiped
I assist my fellow merchant
I aid those not so blessed
as well as those who guessed
I hope this clears things up
one day we'll dine and sup
