Adding To The Pantheon



...
the Greeks said didymos for twin,
for twins said didymi.

Overlooking Gundagai
is a hill named after Parnassus,
on which, in ancient Greece,
from Castalia the spring,
sprang poetic inspiration.
Perhaps her own Castalia is why
there's no town in Australia
more sung about than Gundagai.
