On his mighty mountain Jove reigned with his queen Never questioned Never held in check Such riches never seen! With mount Olympus as his home Far above the throng He could do just as he pleased No, he was never wrong! Then a fair nymph maiden Caught Jove's roving eye Hera was out shopping He saw the maid go by... Making his advances He found that he was spurned! No matter how he postured Her head was never turned! "Oh Jupiter!" She laughed aloud "You bloated moon, you knave! I'd rather love a he-goat For all the gifts you gave! You have no tact. No honor. You plurocratic fool! You pick your teeth with Poor men's bones Using wealth as tool! Go on then! Arrest me! Force me... if you dare... But I know Hera's servants The one's who do her hair!" Jupiter was stymied He knew just what this meant. Hera'd throw a fit for sure! So he had to relent. But he cursed the nymph-maid With great poverty. But dissing him was such a joy She'd do the same for FREE! (C) SoulSurvivor

Jupiter Falling
On his mighty mountain Jove reigned with his queen Never questioned Never held in check Such riches never seen! With mount Olympus as his home Far above the throng He could do just as he pleased No, he was never wrong!
