A Secret

Do you know what happens

to Gods after they lose a war?

Their wives and daughters are stolen.

But the male Gods, their fate

is something far more hideous.

Atlas was fortunate.

They only gave him the burden

of the whole wide world.

But my father and the other

Titans who stood against the Olympians

were not so lucky.

You see,

the floors of Olympus

were meant to be gold.

Gold the colour of regency.

Gold the colour of nobility.

Gold. The colour of Gods’ blood.
