" she wore silk dresses
and flower crowns
she was loved she was soft
and then she was stolen
and this is the story they tell.they do not speak of her rages
when she would pull rain from the clouds
and the flowers beneath her feet turned black
they do not speak of how she laughed
when icarus fell from the sky in a golden plume
they do not speak of how she grew flowers because she enjoyed watching
them fade and die
they do not speak of how
she pounded at the gates of hell until they opened and how she let pomegranate juice
drip from her smiling lips
and how even hades
trembled under her gaze. "— on persephone
