Zeus handed Pandora 'pithos'.
She let her curiosity rise.
So out came
illnesses, hardships and cries,
while Pandora trapped
Hope inside.
But the myth is not quite right
When she opened the box,
I believe,
out came I.
The most evil spirit of all,
the burden on this world.
Maybe someday I can
climb back into the box,
and finally let Hope
come outside.
