J's Musings

Medusa,

You Monster-

How can I blame you?

For being evil;

When even Athena cursed you-

For Poseidon’s lust,

Or when the mortals wrote you as a villain;

Turning them to stone,

when they met your gaze;

All you do,

Is protect yourself,

From-

Once again,

A shameless gaze.

Because to you-

A fixed gaze,

Means making a battleground,

Of your own body…
