Greek Mythology: Hades & Persephone
So I grabbed my king and ran away
to a land of death,
where I reigned and people whispered
that I’d been dragged.
I’ll tell you I’ve changed. I’ll tell you,
the red on my lips isn’t wine.
I hope you’ve heard of horns,
but that isn’t half of it. Out of an entire kingdom
he kneels only to me,
calls me Queen, calls me Mercy. -Daniella Michalleni, “Persephone Speaks”
“watch the queen conquer.”
Of course it is happening in your head, but why on earth should that mean it is not real?
