Fair Medusa
I can see that you are miserable.
You can see I am miserable too.
All around me are stone statues
yet you have allowed for me to look upon you.
Perhaps it is that we share this pain inside,
your reason for not turning me to stone.
Maybe within me your senses
are reminded of qualities you also own.
Then let us leave this curse, my fair Medusa!
Within this existence you do not belong.
You became a victim to the gods.
It is they who have done you wrong.
I offer my hand if you will take it
and I say let us put this place behind.
Perhaps the beauty we have both lost
together in each other we will once more find
and if the gods get angry on Mt. Olympus
then let them be angry!
We will not fear.
Time now is at hand when they must see
their own injustices made clear.

A beautiful poem showing Medusa as a victim rather than a monster. Love it.

Michael, you took the myth and created an intricately laid out metaphor which is astounding. This is your best yet. Really find craftsmanship in your words.
