Persephone and Hades. Tondo of an Attic red-figured kylix, ca. 440-430 BC. Said to be from Vulci. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
If and when and maybe
Here’s the schemes that can be
Disturbing now the trinity
Where one plus two is not three
Three times three can be One
See the demons have fun
Here a daughter, here a son
Sacred maths has begun
Let the numbers relate
Open up the hidden gate
We can all commiserate
With those lost to such hate
If and when and maybe
Calling cards to Hades
All you gents and ladies
Just what choices made thee

I’m sure there is much I’m missing from not knowing certain things but I liked the way the poem sounded so much I read it out loud twice. It was pleasant to do–as all good poetry should be.>KB

I like this and feel you have a real talent! Poor Persephone with Hades…
Thanks so much, that is really generous of you! 🙂 🙂
