Venus

[tectak]

.

Great Dido, Love inflamed your passion,
then caused the object of your affliction
to flee, over the sea, away from you, secretly.
Feeble Dido, not being able to stand the ache of his loss,
you put a knife through it; then you crossed.
Did this bisection split you from your pain,
as it removed you from your mortal frame?
Exquisite Love made poor Dido go insane.
How delicious, how apropos, how…loving!
