It reminds me of someone singing to themselves, knowing the gods can hear. Knowing she knows that they know, that she knows.

Nice Rea, I like the myth-throw backs! Btw, I don't think you are using the "poetry" formatting for these posts so every line appears like a new paragraph. If that's what you want, then perfect but if you want to not have every line have a space when you make a text post in the top right there is a "more" button and under that poetry and it will be slightly differently formatted.

Thank you for the advice Josh! I will make use of that in future.

Why are you going to Greece, Michael? I love meeting people on Substack. This is a lovely community.
