Poor Oedipus

was blind from birth

pre & post-gouged eyes,

oh why can't these

meddlesome shepherd types

ignore exposed infant's cries

?




He was left there

for top reason 

as sure as Steve is short

 for Stephen

& now a plague

has terwatted Thebes,

plus all that shite

that kicked off with his folks like

- a complete lack of foresight

& a fucking tragedy

...
