Kore – VOICES

Kore

October 4, 2023

Had a lover before
But my pleas the devil ignored
He tricked me to eat pomegranate seeds
To return from Fall to Spring in the Underworld

My name called by Adonis
But the devil isn’t known for being honest
(He loves me he loves me not)
As I picked the petals he dragged me down
I remained there Winter and Autumn
Kore Kore the devil ignored them
I was a young maiden
They named me the death bringer
Tough lessons I taught them

About the Contributor

Meredith Hoover

Meet Meredith Hoover. She was born in Somers Point, New Jersey. She loves baking (yes, the kind that involves a Kitchen Aid mixer). She also loves writing stories and has been writing for a while now. She didn’t really notice she had a knack for it until she was 16 or 17, which is around the time she began to embrace it more. But baking, on the other hand, she had loved ever since the ripe old age of 8 because of her grandmother (who is deceased sadly; she died when Meredith was thirteen), and her great aunt (still alive and one of the most badass women in her family). She hopes to one day be an author and publish her ideas as books. Either that or own a bakery/restaurant/café; or both if given the option!
