Venus
She
Married to Hephastus
A vision of perfect loveliness
Good and true
The perfect bride
To a man full of blind duty...responsibility and devotion to her.
She
Lover of Ares
A vision of flawed passion
Wanton and Impure
The perfect paramour
To a man of wild instinct...rage and jealousy for her
Jean
When She
Closes her green eyes at night beside her husband
Does she
Allow her secret love into dreams within her desires
Beauty with perception
to see the hearts of others
But not her own
to see the lies of others
But not her own
Never her own
Does she imagine she is Venus?
Foolhearty goddess of love
Who does not yet know the meaning of the word.
