This is so well done, so vigourous and with a compelling, driving rythm! But, like CCT, I couldn't help stumbling over 'bull shit' - maybe because our minds are simply no longer used to associating it with the real stuff, but know it only as another expression for nonsense, LOL...

The poem has a lot of vivid imagery with it.

Eek! I would want something a bit more powerful than a sword. You kept this moving well Ciel. Your style is quite unique and you know the facts. I was just hit by shit. we in the farming community call it dung in a sweet spot. Well I would not bother to tell you if I did not like the poem.

Re: Pat,
Sorry... I will make an edit. The Renault books are based on the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur.
And, thanks! I'm glad you like it.

I don't catch the reference here, but the poem stands on its own.
Wow!
