Paris’ wonderful egg-shelled woman warred
like spotlighted golden spoils.
Andromache, winner’s delightful trophy, bent down
in her fearful white dolorous cry.
Sappho’s last lesbian life-death cheated illusion
assaulted by the salt sea water waves.
Segregated Veronese families: hatred confliction
of bloody moon secret youth’s balcony.
Isis: almond-eyed politician Egyptian whore human war’s
rare learned shrewd nilotic flower.
Obsessed luciferin lecherous bacchante of Roman
warred brothels’ perversed empress.
Noble fertile Jewish womb sown of arian sabularia: mother’s of faithful pilgrim founded catholic faith.
