Hellin Killer Speaks!

I met her in the year of the snake, from which very moment she-and the other seditionist muses would inspire us to change history.
Or die trying
There she is.
The feral queen, the cold eyes
The blue bandanna (the latest Germ thing?) the shorn hair of a pariah-Joan of Arc on bad speed? Or perhaps a Muse...Right, a muse! And if she was a muse, Polyhymnia perhaps, she muse of eloquence and sacred poetry, or Clio-Muse of heroic poetry and history?
And where once I'd toiled over my Dante, upon meeting her it came back in but a flash, Canto II with Dante and Virgil descending into hell (Inferno) Canto
O muse, o alto ingegno, or m'aiutate;
o mente che scrivesti ciò ch'io vidi,

(O Muses, O high genius, now assist me!
O memory, that didst write down what I saw...)
