Triolus And Cressida Poem by shimon weinroth

Triolus And Cressida



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

then when things went awry,

they cried for salvation,
and the matchmaker was
accused of pimping,

now i ask you and myself, one and all
is not a scheming father and conniving mother
who on behalf their offspring plan
arranging meetings and marriages

are not they -
or would you uses a softer note
to describe the same office,

ethics are in the mind of the beholder
