Daidalos played with poison
and the gormandizing mind of a king
corrupting DNA with his brilliance.

Quick succession of bolding and evanesce jeopardy 
In confusion.

Sitting in the front row with a pressed sundress

A province of vices and soured delinquencies

And reality seems unnatural 
Like angels and demons in a guileful romance
