in Portugal here
at the continent's southwestern rim
where as the legend says
enchanted horses and their riders
turned into rocks
break up the waves
Hesiod's vision of Atlantis lingers on
and with some luck
you see
the path
that leads to a submerged paradise
yet beware
lest you tread gently
and with care
the palace falls to ruins
and the fair beautiful women
grow Medusa's hair
