Poseidon raped ME but men, women and Gods hate ME?

Athena cursed ME (for being raped by Poseidon) but my locs ain’t really snakes, see?

Gold tipped ends blowing in the wind

Scared and confused mortal men and lost all my family and friends

My story was shaped by chauvinistic and misogynistic

Cowards who didn’t help a sista out but wonder why she got pissed quick

The Roman poet Ovid was the first wimp to get statued 

Then other fools tried to manipulate and decapitate me and what have you

A life of love should have been my metamorphosis 

Instead one look at my dreads makes sand pour out people’s orifices

When I got merked by Perseus he used my wig as a weapon

Karma’s a witch ‘cuz Megapenthes taught him a fatal lesson

Silly Gods even though I’m dead, my legend persists

This cursed mortal woman’s rage is the reason why the Gods no longer exist

Engaging piece really makes you think. Was surprised with the second stanz very nicely done. A word of advice keep reading books on famous poets in the genre. Very good adaptation from reading. Most partial to the last line in reading it was never forced very good overall in reading.
