"Now Glaucus, with a lover's haste, bounds o'er" - Ovid; Metamorphoses: Book The Fourteenth... https://www.poetrycat.com/ovid/metam...the-fourteenth

"of all the blessings which to man"."of all the blessings which to man" by e e cummings
https://allpoetry.com/of-all-the-blessings-which-to-man
AI Overview of Book 14 of Ovid's "Metamorphoses" primarily focuses on the story of Aeneas, the Trojan hero, culminating in his apotheosis (transformation into a god) after his valiant deeds in battle, signifying the lineage of Rome's founding fathers and their divine connection; this book also features interwoven tales like the story of Picus and Canens, where Circe plays a role, and explores themes of love, transformation, and the power of the gods, often with a focus on the Roman narrative and its origins"
e.e. - almost a normal poem... the word "worth" caught me off guard, expecting "worse"... Enjoyed the poem and analysis :)

re Ovid: Just saw that I forgot to include the link about book 14 of Ovid´s Metamorphosis, sorry. But you found it or a similar one. AI is ok as long as it doesn´t invent things on it´s own.
re e e: lol! I agree!
