40. Chloris, the Greek goddess, at the Uffizzi gallery, Florence.
From Botticelli's Primavera, drooling flowers like some hippy chick totally out of it on acid at Woodstock, maybe while Jimi Hendrix was playing Voodoo Chile ..
and if i don't meet you no more in this world
then i'll, i'll meet you in the next one
and don't be late, don't be late
'cause i'm a voodoo child ..
And Athena said something similar about Chloris' parents, Oceanus and Tethys, in The Iliad, as well ..
give me love, give me longing now, the powers
you use to overwhelm all gods and mortal men! |
