PYGMALION & GALATEA
In the days of old, humans worshiped art
while the gods watched from above.
Poets opened their veins and bled out rivers of red desire
Invincibility is...It's being a warrior on the field The only player that makes everyone yieldInvincibility is...The joy of a secret smile The type that won't fade for awhile Invincibility is...Best friends who will never leave Best friends who al
So there I was sitting down,
Locker room was full.
And out of nowhere he came round,
Like he owned the school.
I walked up and he pushed me,
Dionysus, the man of greed
The king of ecstasy
The queen of mead
Dionysus, Dionysus, the graceful drunk
The dapper playboy
With charm and spunk
He cut his hair
and grew wings
forever searching for her-
the thief.
She ran and with her
took his heart.
He didn’t mind so much-
his heart in her clever hands,
Wandering the dim,
Hades searches.
Dancing through the light,
Persephone considers.
Narcissus
Tall and handsome
Dreamy eyes and soft hair
Kind features, complexion fair
He was beautiful
And he knew it.
But what's wrong with that?
my life is like like charybdis
my head is spinning, can't take this
I breathe in, everything all at once
I belche it out and feel like a dunce
if only i had someone to come
and pick out every crumb
Across the realm the Princess roamed,
Feeling, as ever, completely alone.
The Shades all around had nothing to say.
She desp’rately missed the light of the day.
She discovered an end of the world, never known.
My world was small, but you showed me
Wings built to carry all that I am.
Are you aware of my changring heart?
Melting away and molding into something new.
In this moment,
Pandora's box contains one thing. It is
the only thing I need. But I will need
to set it free to give hope to my
family.
