...i am the blood of nessus...
[[insolent in Hera's name;
The very veins of coveting]]
...i am the blood of nessus...
[[Once adorned in dress and golden coronet
I deadened darling Creusa]]
...i am the blood of nessus...
[[They knew of me in ancient times
and here I persist today]]
...i am the blood of nessus...
[[I am the death of thousands
sickly sweet and savage]]
...i am the blood of nessus...
{{I AM the blood of Nessus}}
Author notes
I made lots of allusions. It's a toss up between jealousy and poison for what this poem is about superficially. I think it's about both, unintentionally. But on a deeper level, I was talking about me and how I feel about it. I think that I can be a poison. I'm not 100% sure exactly how I feel about it, but when I wrote this, I tried to portray being a bit proud of it.
Constructive Criticism is Much Appreciated.

I like this one, too. It's a bit rough and I noticed one spelling error on line 8. Anciet should be ancient. Other than that, it was well written.
