Theseus and the Minotaur

 
the taut thread
in the passages
of the cold labyrinth
the paper walls
minotaur scratches
the silk curtains
of cobwebs

Ariadne knows more
than what you think
she knows how to make a thread
that everything can handle
the thrust of penetration
of Theseus
and the destructive force
from the horns of the halfman

no hero could foresee
the fragile thread stretched
that unites the beginnings
to the inevitable ends

Ariadne sees all
that passes through the curtains
of cobwebs
in the labyrinth of dilated veins
from the heart of the hero who fights...
she knows it's going to be a long night.

an irresistible filter
that emanates
of the sorcerer's skin
the unending fevers
sea delusions
scripture of destiny
for deciphering
browse and lose
the thread to the skein...
