The Labyrinth and the Minotaur


Man unlike man

Features that shocked and saddened 

Violent rages of revenge

For the merciless killing of a mother

 

An unholy prison

No chains or shackles

No bars or guards

But door upon door

 

No escaping the labyrinth 

With a mind of its own

Complexity within itself

The Minotaur damned forever
