Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Cassandra


Princess of Troy Cassandra be

Loved by the god, Apollo, who

Gave her the gift of prophecy,

Expecting Cassandra to do

His bidding and return his love.

When she refused then with displease

Apollo added a curse of

Disbelief of her prophecies.

Later Greece attacked Troy to get

Helen's return and in deceit

Used a big wooden horse to let

Troy be tricked into a defeat.


Cassandra warned about this horse.

Troy did not believe her of course.
