Modern Day Daphne

Modern Day Daphne

Tripping all over her sweats

as she runs and hides in the 

antique store.

​

Apollo is enjoying the chase.

He has been drinking.

The sour whiskey had reached her nose

before she even caught sight of him.

​

Now, she prayed and prayed

that she wouldn't get caught.

But Peneus was dead.

​

She was on her own.
