Venus Velocity
VENUS VELOCITY
the mighty Aphrodite
flaunts her voluptuous
Venus Velocity
a beauty of note
with potential to
transform and
emote
she even outdid
Helen of Troy
but alas…
Prince Paris
chose Helen
which started a
war
her symbol the dove
a peace offering
which is odd
as she controlled
and manipulated her
love
Venus Velocity
which leads us to
life’s truthful sting
looks are and always
will be
everything
