Pithos Pyxsis or Not

This is a bit of a mystery poem puzzle...but an easy one for lazy poets who will solve it in a nano second.It is based on RWP 107 prompt 'lighting the way'


The three Graces set sail from here
with Trust at the helm ages ago
the instant you did it

It was so serious that it shattered the
sun into blinding light bursts

You were moulded into a beauty
the world at your feet
nothing denied to you
except that one thing

But you couldn't resist it
Could you?
The only reason you wanted
to take that peek was because
you were told not to
You weren't even curious

All hell broke loose
as a result
and the rest of us paid
Every family has one
To think that
pampered felines are
still named after you
