asymmetrical exit string
King Minos
has become drunk
and he is
speaking in tongues
to the crowds
at the wedding of Ariadne
and Bacchus
there will rise
from the sea
to Crete
a young challenger
a champion of plebe
and I will say
what have you to offer
the theater today
what can I do
to make sure
it looks like
I fairly leveled
the sands
in drawn circles
that combat
my intentions
to know and design
the outcomes
and wear them
as providence
this, so that I might feed
him to the Minotaur
unmentioned or at least
in a way that says
the kid will have
deserved it
and I knew to lock
away all my maidens
lest I befall
the fate of Priam,too
a silence enters here
at the seal fate of
his death wish
the chorus echoes
a nautilus drone
you are too drunk
with power and riches
and all these things
will bind you
