Comes in waves?
More like chariots.
Burning wall
perpendicular
to the arrow,
Achilles in the sand.
Dry dunes laughing,
waving sea oats like cowbells
amused by dragging.

Why Didn't Anyone Tell Us
Men, move along. This is not for you. This is for the women. I was forty-five when I began menopause. It is pretty young for that to be going on in a woman’s life, but I had undiagnosed PCOS, my entire life. Thank you to all the gynecologists I had seen my entire life. That in itself should encourage women to keep seeking second opinions, especially when you are not getting correct answers or any at all.

This was actually one of the books I had to read for school that took my interest. Great poem to compliment the climax of Olyssey, book of Homer. They have a film out this year, I might go see this epic movie, I hope director Christopher Nolan do a great job. Matt Damon play, Odysseus. Great cast, come out in July
Mmm the personification of the dry dunes really sings here. I love mythology and really enjoyed this!
Waving sea oats like cowbells would work in the line that doesn’t fit challenge. Great read.
