Stare into Medusa's hypnagogic eyes ...
. Medusa Emerges Under Trying Circumstances
If I tell you snakes were sacred to Athena.
If I share with you,
that snakes are a symbol of the
life, death and rebirth transformation cycle.
Can you now see,
that Medusa's snakey hair
is not a punishment from Athena,
but a gift,
an antennae?
And those eyes,
those all-seeing eyes.
Her spiraling galaxies
turning all who come too close,
to stone.
Is this not a reclamation of power,
hidden in plain sight
under the noses
of those who penned the narrative?
