Day 25: Based Off My Favourite Myth/Mythology

(I am such a mythology geek, I didn't even know where to start! I love all different sorts of myths from different cultures, particularly Greek and Norse mythology, but I decided to go with Greek mythology for this, with a focus on the myth of Persephone and Hades.)

She wanders the fields

where sweet flowers 

entrap the innocent

and summer was 

 swiftly taken on

the wheels of the underworld; 

she is given temptation 

to stay

presented in

tiny ruby red 

packages that bleed 

with sweetness 

and promises 

that she was never made 

for the light.
