unmatched

"a woman's love can get you through the night"
so Thetis sought to sooth her grieving son.
but Achilleus girded for the fight;
without Patrokles, even sex ain't fun.
King Agamemnon gave him back the girl,
and heaps of bronze, and chariots beside.
But such a therapon was worth a world;
he's not to be so cheaply mollified.
he equal of a god when moved to ire,
but burning bright, was quick to burn away.
When once his love was taken by the pyre,
he lost the will to hold grim fate at bay.
The Archer, not a man laid him to rest,
who out of all Achaeans was the best.
