T&Cxp = Matchmaking Poem by shimon weinroth

T&Cxp = Matchmaking



Triolus in his sore need
beseeched and pled his case
to his friend Pindarus
Criseyde's uncle and protector

when things went awry
they cried for salvation
and the matchmaker was
accused of pimping

are not, a scheming father
and conniving mother
who for their offspring plan
meetings and marriages

should we use a softer note
to describe the same office
ethics are of the mind
and of the beholder
