do you think helen of troy thought about persephone when she was taken? her first winter in this new city, far from her brothers and sisters and cousins and mother and father and husband, all alone and watching the war from her windows, did she wonder how persephone was doing with her husband in the underworld? did persephone wonder about her, in return? in some stories they're half sisters, you know; daughters of zeus, kidnapped on their father's encouragement, crying for each other on opposite ends of the year. Never meeting but knowing the other anyways, caring for the other anyways. mirrors in bronze and gold.
