I find the poem Medusa one of my favourite poetry done by Carol Ann Duffy. I think it might be because I found her powers well in this case curse to turn living things to stone cool. However when reading it, I felt a bit of sympathy towards her. Having done some prior research, Medusa was seduced by the sea God Poseidon and to her lady Athena that was the biggest betray. Therefore she turned her hair to stone.
