The Visions of Cassandra

If I be Witch; Enchantress, yes! Hades own sweet Sorceress My Siren's Song to him belongs Medea, may I wear your dress? By Spell or Charm, I mean no harm, Your beating Heart is all I need Oh, Circe's swine! Where is mine? Must I pray to Hecate? With Titan's wrath, as Heroes pass, I shall capture one for me! *I have an immense love for Greek mythology so this piece may be more difficult to understand if you are not familiar with the references. "Hecate" is pronounced "Heck-a-tee" and "Circe" is pronounced "Seer-see" or "Sir-see" :)

Yes me too I love myths but Chan where's the meat?? So far all I have read would be called light poetry perhaps even ditties? I have no problem with rhyming poetry but I do like a good story, like what you tell in prose. A lot of characters up there doing what together? Light & Love

You have nailed this one. Your love of Greek Mythology shines through ... It is apparent what it is about and done brilliantly :)
