Asteria

a devotional poem to the goddess Hecate's mother the Starry Titaness Asteria.

Asteria of starry nights

Illuminating the night like the star she is,

A star so precious

Captures the eye of Thundering Zeus

Zeus gives swift chase 

after the starry titaness,

To escape the Olympian kings grasp,

she falls,

Shooting herself across the sky

Into ocean depths

To where the falling star 

Rises as the isle Delos
