    pretty hectic in the world around because of it. Really there isn’t much of a difference between Greek Mythology and Our Society. This brings the poem “The Apple of Discord I” which is a parody of “From The Black Ship...” As in lines 21-23 when Goddess Eris (from another piece of Greek Mythology) calls other Goddesses “Vain” after all she is vain herself.
