Heaphestus' lover starts to love someone else, so he writes a poem about it.

A poem,
By: Heaphestus

Secretly,
Day-by-day
I stare at her wistfully,
If you may.

My hands are rough,
And my body's broken.
But my heart's not tough
And my brain's a token.

I see her,
And my heart flutters.
But the belt has captured another,
And I wish to bring out my cutter.

Though the one is a god,
Ares, my own dear brother.
Loves my love, a slimy cod,
An loves him back, though she's my lover.

I stare at her every day,
Yet she stares at him
When I look a certain way,
She sings the Ares hymn.

My dear Urania,
Why are you so sweet?
Pendemos brings a love maina
When Ares brings a beat.

I hate to do this,
But you have forced my trap.
I'm something that is
to a huge magic cap.

Like a net,
But far more powerful.
It's been set
to see if our love is plentiful.

If you love me,
then it will be clear.
I will see easliy
For unsprung traps aren't me fear.
