The Night 🌚 NYX
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
In shadows deep, where night does reign,
Goddess Nyx, a celestial bane.
Stars her jewels, the moon her guide,
In darkness, beauty shall abide.
A tapestry of dreams unfurls,
As Nyx, the cosmic fabric swirls.
Cloaked in mystery, veiled in grace,
She weaves the threads of time and space.
Silent whispers in the dark,
Her presence leaves a mystic mark.
Nocturnal queen, with power vast,
In Nyx's embrace, shadows cast.
A symphony of shadows, a ballet of the night,
Goddess Nyx, in celestial flight.
In cosmic dance, her essence weaves,
An ode to her, the night receives.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Sing O goddess, of Hera's rage, how they vilified her for it, even if she was a woman betrayed. Sing O goddess, of Helen's desire, how everyone forgot she was the daughter of the most powerful God and that was what made the whole world burn. Sing O goddess, of Hestia's fires, how she left the cruelty of Olympus for a peaceful life - how she gave Prometheus the idea to steal the sacred flames for the mortal world. Sing O goddess, but not of Odysseus or Menelaus, Achilles or Agamemnon. Sing instead of women full of fire. Sing us the torch song which brings wildfire when Goddesses like you are ignored.

Epic the Musical:
Circe: Oh my! He cannot be transformed by my powers! What do I do?! What do I do?! Think think I need to protect my nymphs! Oh I know! He's a man after all! I'll seduce the hell out of him to get my power over him back! He clearly can defeat my entourage of wolves and lions all by himself! I mean he's damn immune to my magic! I am sure he can do anything with his sword!
Circe: *aggressive flirting*
Odysseus: Oh my gods oh my gods she is hot...what the hell?! Oh I am just a man! Forgive me... No! Wait! J can't! I love My wife way too much! Please let us go home! I miss my wife!
Circe: Awww that is so sweet! Of course darling. I was always a sucker for a good soap opera. Of course I'll help you free of charge and here's some useful tips for your trip! Drive home safely!
The Odyssey:
Circe: Oh my! This man actually had the AUDACITY to come in my home and threaten me! And he took all precautions (a God helped him no doubt). Finally a man I can consider worthy of standing by my side and not bad looking either!
Circe: Come on, darling. Remove your clothes and let's get down on it! Let's see what you've got!
Odysseus: (oh my! Forgive me Penelope that is the only way to save my men! Hermes told me not to refuse her a thing! She is a freaking goddess that commands all these wild beasts! Power over me or not she's a force to be reconed with!) F-Fine but I cannot do what you ask before I ensure my men are safe. Please release them first and then I will (gods gotta buy myself time! Ain't prepared!)
Circe: *does that*
Odysseus: *sighs* I guess we're doing this...
*A year later*
Odysseus: Okay men you had your fun but I can't keep entertaining her forever! We must go home!
Odysseus: Please Circe let me and my people go! We have to go back
Circe: Oh but can't you stay a bit more?
Odysseus: No...I miss my wife and son
Circe: Fine, my dear, if that's what you want... Your happiness is more important than my satisfaction and I love you so I shall let you go. You paid your price fully. Here are some useful tips for you, some provisions and good luck...

Circe: *gestures at the pen* You see those pigs?
Odysseus: Yeah?
Circe: If you can point out the ones that are your soldiers, you guys can leave here.
Odysseus:
Odysseus: You know what, I'll just cut the losses and go.

Some quotes I loved from "Circe" by Madeline Miller
Tumblr media
“I did not pretend to be a mortal. I showed my lambent, yellow eyes at every turn. None of it made a difference. I was alone and a woman, that was all that mattered.”
“I had once told Daedalus that I would never marry, because my hands were dirty, and I liked my work too much. But this was a man with his own dirty hands.”
“Odysseus, son of Laertes, the great traveler, prince of wiles and tricks and a thousand ways. He showed me his scars, and in return he let me pretend that I had none.”
“A dozen times grief had scorched, but its fire had never burned through my skin. My madness in those days rose from a new certainty: that at last, I had met the thing the gods could use against me.”
“Our faces are both lined now, marked with our years. I listen to his breath, warm upon the night air, and somehow I am conforted. This is what it means to swim in the tide, to walk the earth and feel it touch your feet. This is what it means to be alive.”

Khwarazm/Chorasmian murals from Akchakhan-Kala & Toprak-Kala, 3rd century BCE - 3rd century CE. The one with hearts is from Toprak-Kala. The rest are from Akchakhan-Kala.
"The world of hearts is under his power in the same manner that The Khwarazmshahs have brought peace to the world."

Hello, lovely human! I'm glad to see you at this little corner of the internet :))
I'm Arianna (she/her) -- writer, poet, queer Christian, feminist, ENFJ, and constant fangirl. I've wanted to live in a library since I entered the world; if you wanted to describe me in book characters....think Nina Zenik crossed with Elizabeth Bennet, Wylan Van Sunshine, Holly Munro, and Samwise Gamgee. I'm always dreaming of other worlds while learning to love this one.
What can you expect to see here? well, a lot of excited ramblings; book quotes, moodboards, random thoughts, and original poetry. I'm deeply passionate about mental health ( sideblog link at the bottom) and much of my poetry reflects that. I battle anxiety, depression, and OCD; literature and art has become my greatest coping mechanism and teacher. the only thing I love more than sunsets are sunrises; I fall in love with the little things everyday. the stars are the greatest comfort :) at this given moment, I'm probably working on my novel; listening to Taylor Swift/ Hozier/ Boygenius/ Noah Kahan while sketching or painting; putting even more books on my library hold list, cuddling my cats, or fangirling over old poetry.

NOTE: if you’re following me for the sole purpose of poetry and don’t necessarily want all of the 2am thoughts/song recs/fanart/randomness, I totally understand! Please let me know if you’d like me to tag you in poetry posts so you don’t miss it :)

My gorgeous Lilith ✨ Thank You ✨
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
In shadows deep, where whispers wreathe,
Goddess Lilith, in night's reprieve.
With serpentine grace, a darkened dance,
She reigns in mystery, a mystic trance.
A silhouette against the moonlit sky,
Her presence, potent, mystifies.
Untamed spirit, a rebel's pride,
Lilith, in darkness, does confide.
In moonlit gardens, where secrets grow,
Her wisdom blooms, a shadow's glow.
A goddess fierce, with wings unfurled,
Lilith, revered in the underworld.
Embracing darkness, she finds her might,
In realms unseen, she takes her flight.
A symbol of freedom, untamed desire,
Lilith's essence, an eternal fire.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

the unloved nymph (Circe Seeks Love)
Finally braving and posting some of my Graduation Project over here. This comic is based on a poem I wrote about Circe, my absolute favourite figure from Greek Mythology.
The comic shows glimpses of her story (Glaucus and Scylla, Odysseus, and one of her sons, Telegonus)
I have also made an animation for this project but im too shy to share it here. I know I've mostly been posting fanart so I don't want to flood with my nerd Greek Mythology content.

Aphrodite of war, Areia Divine
nothing stands between you and your desires
what hubris sows, you will reap—swift and unmerciful
your Divine Nemesis of retribution
preeminent power of unbridled vengeance, star-struck Nike seated beside you
a mighty power few Gods and fewer mortals can resist
for you are the first to challenge mighty Ares
and bring Him to His knees

winter is here
and i miss you
the brisk air you bring by sunrise
with the honeyed dew on the green grass
just a few months between me
and the warmth that comes with the closeness of you
i miss the way you litter the fields
with the narcissi you plant from under
i miss the showers you bring after
to moisture the heart of the soil,
to feed us. oh, how much you give.
i miss the cherry blossom petals
that fall on my cheeks like rain droplets,
i tell myself that it’s a gentle kiss from you
winter has a few months to go,
but i still miss you.
