The Lost Hope

Flying  from  out  of  the  eerie  world  of  spirits            
The  Sphinx  has  come  to  crouch  and   pose  :  
'To  close  Pandora's  Box  solve  the  puzzle  of  Greed  !'
Trust  not  Luck , nor  Fate  but  work  with  wits ;
The  fire  of  greed  and  desire  plays    havoc ,
Crippling  the  ability  to  seek  content  even  in  bits
And  wipe   out   the  artefact  of  divine   replica ;
"Abracadabra " ,here  is  the  only  panacea  that  befits ;
Will  Oedipus  or  Jason  rescue  the  race , comatose
' Solve  the   puzzle  of   Greed  to  close  Pandora's  Box ! '
And  find  the   new   glow  of   hope   that   emits .
