February 4
Flung centripetal
Kissing the god of the underworld
Forever frozen
In exotic outlying sublimations
.
May 4
En route to the hellscape
Of the goddess of love
That averages with Hades
Inspiring tepidity
.
July 4
'Til the kiss with Aphrodite
Begins and ends in gilded guilt
With a hot tongue betwixt
That can melt lead, defeating alchemy
.
October 4
Slingshot centrifugal
Eyeing verdancy
And an entire spectrum
From yellow to green
...and per annum
...red to orange
...and blue to the forevers of ultraviolet...
