Teiresias
So tell me, blind seer:
What do you know about the body electric?
When the spiteful goddess made you
one of her own, made you
a servant to her servants;
did you call your womanhood sacred?
When she took your eyes
and you were guided through the market,
had your hands put to the naked meats
spoiling in the spotlights;
what did you hope to learn
from this corrupted imitation?
Tell me, blind seer:
What delightful prophecies do you have for us?
