He calls himself Jupiter;
he used to be Zeus.
An image change was called for
after all the rapes, and especially that business with the swan.
And Pluto – his name was Hades;
Place of shades.
Pluto means “The Rich One”; “Wealthy”.

and I respect that.
Demeter refuses to change her name;
she can’t accept
that daughter of hers, lovely Kore
is now Persephone,
Queen of the Dead.

I know. I’m Hecate —
still.
Always
will be —
because I’m 3 times 3;
future, past & present
maiden, mother, crone,
all exist at once in me.
I’m the future in the past.
