primordial god of sexual love, beauty
concieved of plenty and poverty
at the birthday of his mother Aphrodite
the god of love was he rooted
in the tradition he continues,
feast or famine for those
to love he would imbue
giving to some liberation to love many
others shackles to find no love at all
In each shame for their lack
of Aphrodites deep love connections
Eros departed his wife roamed
the earth looking for his love
just sex did not seem to be enough
even for the god of sexual prowess,
and eternal covetess beauty
marriage became a hefty duty
