What began as two lines for a longer poem that I never was able to finish have become two lines of a short poem. Is doing so a "cop-out"? Or a service to prospective readers? I prefer to label this edit the latter, if only because it increases attention to the first line, which (as an alternative to "I wish I had spent more time at the office...") could acceptably constitute my Dying Words:
Riddle
I'm the tangled rope you wish to cut,
The minotaur's snort in the morning;
Without trying, just by
Being I untwine
the labyrinth of sleep.
