For JASON
my Anglo-Greek grandson
with
hopes for his new life
and for his generation
She was not unprincipled. In many respects
she was a ‘Good Woman’. But love and lust
silenced her. She could have spoken.
She did not speak. So the trap was sprung.
From then on, decline was inevitable
and a kingdom was lost.
We all face similar crises
wherein we are made or broken.
