Ovid

Publius Ovidius Naso (Classical Latin: [ˈpʊb.li.ʊs ɔˈwɪ.di.ʊs ˈnaː.soː]; 20 March 43 BC – AD 17/18), known as Ovid (/ˈɒvɪd/) in the English-speaking world, was a Roman poet who lived during the reign of Augustus. He was a contemporary of the older Virgil and Horace with whom he is often ranked as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature. The Imperial scholar Quintilian considered him the last of the Latin love elegists. He enjoyed enormous popularity, but, in one of the mysteries of literary history, he was sent by Augustus into exile in a remote province on the Black Sea, where he remained until his death. Ovid himself attributes his exile to carmen et error, "a poem and a mistake", but his discretion in discussing the causes has resulted in much speculation among scholars.

The first major Roman poet to begin his career during the reign of Augustus, Ovid is today best known for the Metamorphoses, a 15-book continuous mythological narrative written in the meter of epic, and for collections of love poetry in elegiac couplets, especially the Amores ("Love Affairs") and Ars Amatoria ("The Art of Love"). His poetry was much imitated during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, and greatly influenced Western art and literature. The Metamorphoses remains one of the most important sources of classical mythology.

    Evita

    by: Evita

    High flying, adored
    So young, the instant queen
    A rich, beautiful thing
    Of all the talents
    Across between
    A fantasy of the bedroom
    And a saint
    You were just a backstreet girl
    Hustling and fighting
    Scratching and biting
    High flying, adored
    Did you believe
    In your wildest moments
    All this would be yours
    That you'd become
    The lady of them all?
    Were there stars in your eyes
    When you crawled in at night
    From the bars, from the sidewalks
    From the gutter-the-atrical?
    Don't look down
    It's a long, long way to fall
    High flying, adored
    What happens now?
    Where do you go from here?
    For someone on top of the world
    The view is not exactly clear
    A shame you did it all
    At twentysix
    There are no mysteries now
    Nothing can thrill you
    No one fulfill you
    High flying, adored
    I hope you come to terms with burden
    So famous, so easily
    So soon is not the wisest thing to be
    You won't care if they love you
    It's been done before
    You'll despair if they hate you
    You'll be drained of all energy
    All the young who've made it
    Would agree
    High flying, adored
    That's good to hear
    But unimportant
    My story's quite usual:
    Local girl makes good
    Weds famous man
    I was slap in the right place
    At the perfect time
    Filled a gap - I was lucky
    But one thing I say for me
    No one else can fill it
