The Gods of the sky

Position most high

The rulers of all

We stand up tall

Zeus’s father Cronus

No longer ruler among us

In a loud “crack”! He is beaten and banished

Zeus’s new kingdom instantly established

One of his sisters, Hera for a wife

She was the Goddess in his new life

But this God had many other lovers

His licentious heart found many others

Hermes, Aphrodite, Apollo and Artemis,

Thief, Lover, Sun, and huntress.

Four of the many who added to Hera’s misery

She could now see that her love was the true enemy.

The Gods of the sky

Position most high

The rulers of all

We stand up tall

Zeus, like a king most boastful

His acts are often deceitful

Hera’s heart, holding hurt

Her wrath unto enemies, she stomped in the dirt

Zeus, a beast wielding a lightning bolt

Over a million thrown at those who revolt

Anyone who gets in his way

Will surely regret the day

But Hera was the one he could not harm,

Because his love for her made him feel warm.

She batted her pretty eyes,

And her horrible transgressions demised.

Then came the hero Hercules, another Demigod.

She took one look and screamed “Oh My God!”

She finally saw his true self,

His abyss of lies was not worth all the wealth.

But then she realized that there was nothing she could do

And that she was destined to be eternally blue.

She has nothing to live for in this life,

Because being queen to Zeus will cause anyone strife.
