“we’re outgunned, outmanned / outnumbered outplanned / we gotta make an all out stand”

One last Greek myth sex farce—I’ve written other mythic poetry, but none of the others are farces.

Summary:

A rhyming rumble in the gym. At stake:
    The Cheerleading Championship of all Greece.
Pieria Academy had come to take
    The challengers on their home court down a piece.
    Not Atalanta’s balls, not Golden Fleece,
Not wife-swapping in Troy would beat this brawl.
’Twas almost bigger than school basketball.

Or, the elite nymphs from Pieria Academy aren’t underestimating the upstarts of Helicon Community College, are they? Nahhh.


Honestly, I think this one justifies its existence with the crack about “wife-swapping in Troy.”
