Replying to a comment on:

Aphrodite (edited) (Sonnet) by Caducus

From Poseidon, Aphrodite appeared, With eyes aquamarine that shone, From virgin sight I was endeared, The ocean bowed which she walked upon. Semitic goddess of rapturous deity, Embrace me like you do the earth. Salt from my eyes for you I lay at sea, Let my sadness of envy be our mirth. But from the zealous palms of Cronus, The sickle splits my flesh to froth, Son’s of Hesiod come to stone us, My blood mixes in to salty broth, And I spread around her immortal flesh, And we are one in togetherness.

Horus : that was so kind of you.

With your permisson can i post it as 'Aphrodite (horus8 version)

You too have stuck to the story with a different twist and greek mythology is wicked don't you think.

line 3 is so cool as is 2/8/9/10 and the crescendo says a lot about fate and i can think of 3 or 4 metaphors for the last line.

Inspired.
