And the madness continues . . . .

Fearing Hera might find out and clonk her,
Zeus wooed Leda by stooping to conquer,
While disguised as a bird
And the girl, undeterred,
Simply said, Well I swan, what a honker!

Frank

Lovely Hera was bitchy because
She's addicted to sorrow. Zeus was
Well aware of her hate
When he'd stay out too late
Having fun, but that's what a God does.

Poor Hera was growing quite miffed:
In her marriage, she felt she'd got stiffed:
Let the fool go to Hades
if he thinks that the ladies
all think that this god is god's gift!

Hera Sees

I always heard that Zeus would be
orgasmic to be "with,"
but when I got him in my bed
I learned it was a myth.

Hera to her Therapist

Nothing new. The old fool keeps on zoomin'
all over, from woman to woman.
I would rather be wed
to a satyr
, she said,
or a centaur, or even a human!

Augeas, a miserly git,
Had some stables, once foul as a pit,
Cleaned with Herakles' aid,
Whose good work he repaid
by dismissing the Labor as 'shit.'

Cunning Hera made Herakles mad
Till he killed all he loved. She was glad
When she saw them all dead.
"I'm a good girl," she said,
But that Herakles? "He's very bad."

Hera Again

Said she with a sparkle of malice
"So he thinks that Olympian phallus
makes him seem quite the stud,
but he'd just be a dud
were it not for the help of Cialis."

Well, we're Boomers, and drugs are our chalice
But it's gotten commercial and callous;
You'll know it's the end
And we're right round the bend,
When Grace Slick warbles out, Go Cialis.

Gracie Slick is my Goddess of choice.
Though she's old, she still had a great voice,
And that rabbit all white,
A nightmarish delight,
Makes my heart, linked to iPod, rejoice.
