Oedipus in a Nutshell
Life is a funny thing
Your mother brings you into the world
A voice tells her you will kill the king
She takes you away almost to the clouds
She leaves you
The blackberries protect and surround you until a man finds you
You make him happy
You grow up
Dislike the king
Kill him
Fall in love
You make love to your wife and find out she's your mother
In disgust you walk to the cliff
Take a needle and stab your eyes; damn.
Oedipus !
