The Wrath of a Goddess

The Wrath of a Goddess

How dare you
Treat me
like one of your women?
Like one of your valets?
Like one of your playmates?
Like air, like dust, like bycatch?
How dare you?

I am a Goddess!
Worship me!
You are not worthy to
Kiss the soil I walk upon.
You are not worthy to
Touch my silken skin.
You are not worthy
To even glance upon my face.

On your knees, worm!
On your knees, mortal!
Cover your eyes and
writhe in the dust.
On your knees, man!

You shall learn
How to treat goddesses like us.
We shall teach you
And you shall listen.

That will not do,
will not do at all.
You shall crawl
and you shall suffer
and you shall beg
for me
to stop and keep going
and stop and keep going.

Do you understand now
who I am, little mortal?
Do you know now
How to treat
A Goddess?
