Hera, jealous of her Zeus  
(as you know, he was quite loose)  
troubled many demigods  
these though, tend to beat the odds  
Heracles -- do note the name  
destined to achieve much fame  
Hera tried to kill at birth  
Zeus's genes, for what it's worth  
did protect his little ilk  
all she got was some spilled milk  
Heracles she failed to slay  
thus you have the Milky Way
