pickShort and sweet. I heard about Sappho from Litsy and I thank all of you that bought her to my attention! I can‘t really think of much to say about this other than I‘m going to be reading more books by and about her.

But when you lie dead
No one will notice later or feel sad
Because you gathered no sprays from the roses
Of the Pierian Muses.
Once lost in Hades‘ hall
You will be homeless and invisible
Another shadow flittering back and forth
With shadows of no worth
Personally I read this as a diss track from Ancient Greece and loved it
pick"You will have memories
Because of what we did back then
When we were new at this,
Yes, we did many things, then - all
Beautiful..."
Short, lyrical, emotionally charged poems and fragments on love and desire that leave you wanting more.
pickI am obsessed with Sappho, and have been so for quite some time😅 I own several translations of her and read them often. Her poems are truly unique💖📚
