Letter from Calypso to Oddyseus Lucia Yang Odysseus
Palace of Hades
Kingdom of the Dead
Calypso
Island of Ogygia
Dear Odysseus,
Oh, my ever lasting love, how are you there in the palace of Hades? ... You, Odysseus, seen as the human Zeus, were indeed the same as my lord. ... Odysseus, did you really that much want to leave me? ... Odysseus, you and me were sacrifice of the gods game. ... I can forgive you, Odysseus, for leaving me, since you could not say "no" to Athena, but still you could say that same cruel word to me, a plain witch in your eyes. ...
Odysseus, youve done so many things in your life, traveling to the end of the world, fighting all kinds of enemies, mortals and immortals. ...
Odysseus, you are dissolute, definitely not a faithful husband and lover. ... Odysseus, you were not sure if you loved me or not, you were captured by the ideal-life philosophy created by yourself, but you were unfaithful to your wife. ... " (The Odysseus, pg. ...
Odysseus, if you can receive this letter, if you can read it, and if you can still remember me, please, Odysseus, please tell me, in the seven years we were together, did you really love me for one time, or, you just saw me as the same as the trees and the stones on Ogygia? ... Only you, Odysseus, know the truth. ... Now, Odysseus, do you understand it now? ... Stop cheating yourself, Odysseus. ...
So Odysseus, when you receive this letter, do remember to think what I think about you and your life.
