All people look at me
but no one sees me
Their looks stop at their fantasy

That's how it is to be almost a goddess
inhuman, an image, an avatar
around my body

concealing that I exist
and preventing me from dying
although everyone wants to **** me

for what It has done
in its creative drive
from which I was born

As if I can do something about
the way men and women see me
and what follies they commit

for the phantom with my name
which is immortal and naked
looking fixedly at them

so that their weapons fall
and they reconcile
with their dreams
“Hele-na” = “Mistress of Sunlight”
The most beautiful woman in the world, daughter of Zeus, wife of “Menelaus” (“Vigor of the people”), Paris en “Deiphobus” (“God-fearer”)
