Had I Been Homer, I Had Been Wronged

          Had I Been Homer, I Had Been Wronged

            Invention energizes genius
          Sensuality evokes the whore
        Solemnity confirms the hangman

        Do joy and grace attend the bridegroom or
          Pomp and pageantry accompany the hero,
           then
                Shall that goliath Pullyfemurs come greet me-

                 Yet now, as with cataracts corrected
                Of an inner central eye, 
              the Gulf sky here's as blue as bluest sapphire,
                   as the Aegean's deepest realm:

                       therefore, 
                      heel Scylla, yield Charybdis!
