Did Paris come upon Helen's famed face?
No mention of it in Homer; of course,
epics may slip through ages though displaced
by Virgil's proud Aegean, Trojan horse:
See it stands hard, as jealous Hellenes war,
Let Paris wash her face and so relieve
his pent-up need; Lacoön was slain: his mores
could not face this serpent: and who'd believe
Cassandra? If Achilles' slayer pours
all his seed on Menelaus's bitch, who'd choose
to hold, when they can launch a thousand drips?
Beware this gift that Helen bears - she'll ooze:
With a slick doom, no blind poet could name,
Though fair-faced Helen glowed, once Paris came.

Quite creative wording dear Sister. I continue to enjoy your poetry. It is a different voice you have, very smooth yet raspy. It is like I can hear you reading it, and you speak in hushed tones with a cutting voice.
