The Logos of Persephone
Submitted by detroitmechworks on Sun, 07/22/2018 - 10:07amAgain I fall, and laugh as I do
For there is joy in rising once more anew
and looking upon the world fresh and light.
For my drudgery and service are but a small part
Of my life. The joy in the face as I return
to two homes in sequence, neither the greater.
For I could never live soley in Olympus
the air and light weighs heavy upon a soul

You know you've hit bottom when something like that happens.
