Ommissions of the Sphinx
Oedipus was startled to hear
such a quirky riddle
tripod wasn’t aligned with the gods
nor the temple
but upon seeing Sphinx laying
onto the horrible step and
asking her like a terrace riddle
it means a man
he said and went onto Thebes
the sun voyager
he lighted the palace and the huts
The ancient Baptist
marked the impassable and hurried
to cross out the deeply erotic Iokasta
