Love Poem: The Dwelling of Medusa

The Dwelling of Medusa

Hundreds of frenzied snakes Slithering from her head Looking at me While her gaze wants To turn me to stone But I glance away Knowing the damage That can be caused I met her Dwelling in a cave Unaware of most slang But she endures A painful existence. This Medusa A friend or fiend You tell me I need to know But I will love her Forever and a day One half orange and one quarter lemon Exchanging packages Will be our right True love While romancing sunsets Just remember To avoid the gaze When she’s beside herself And all will be Just fine
