What this project is about.
This one is from Book 3.
How long it took to read this (aloud): 1 mins 52s
What it’s “about”:
So Jove and Juno were fooling ‘round
When he complained “I do all the pound.
I bet you dames enjoy the fuck
More than men” “Boy don’t press your luck”
replied the horny wife. Let’s ask Tiresias
(He’d had and been a piece of ass;
He’d found two snakes who were on the job
And between the two a stick did lob
And for the crime he’d become a bint
For seven years he served a stint.
And then he’d seen the snakes again
And begged reversal [a dick to gain]
So Tiresias knew of what he spoke)
He told the truth – and Juno choked
She tore his eyes out one by one
A tragic end to a non-binary one
Now Jove, by law, could not this deed undo
A consolation prize he did brew
The gift of foresight was given him
That’s no good, in fact it’s grim!
Words I didn’t know: none
Quotable quotes:
“One day while walking through a green-grown wood
He thrust his stick between two monstrously l
Large and Love-joined serpents”
How it lands to my eco-sensibility: No wonder the snakes were pissed
Obvious allusions, ways it was used (that I am aware of already) : xx
What I know I didn’t ‘get’: xx
To my knowledge, who’s used it why/how (RACC): xx
Further research questions: xx
Anything else: xx
Juno really needs a good therapist!
