he is my second favorite mythologi...a great take...<br />he is my second favorite mythological character after prometheus...<br /><br />years ago i wrote a story based on this character... you would laugh if you knew who is the hero...<br /><br />now this reminded me of that... it's in Persian... think i should find it and put up the English version on some bolg...<br />:)<br /><br />i especially loved your opening stanza... the way you want the reader to find some new reason for an act... to think differently... not to judge based on some hackneyed evidences...<br /><br />really great!human beinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232419187783429903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31030337.post-37205504763459574342010-07-02T00:51:35.884-04:002010-07-02T00:51:35.884-04:00@Rall Thanks... and yes it's Icarus.
@Derrick...@Rall Thanks... and yes it's Icarus.<br /><br />@Derrick Not very well disguised, but I did pick one of the best known Greek myths.<br /><br />@Stan Icarus could be talking to Daedalus, but he's also addressing the reader.<br /><br />@Pamela I won't win any points for stumping people :).<br /><br />@JD I think that in many ways Icarus gets a bad rap.<br /><br />@tlh Thank you.Francis Scudellarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008685302028451297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31030337.post-77513549241469576172010-07-01T05:39:18.555-04:002010-07-01T05:39:18.555-04:00I love your second stanza.
