Oedipus

The King Who Saw Too Clearly, Yet Remained Blind

Solved riddles, married my mother, fate’s a real prick.

They say I’m cursed, but I say I was warned. I answered the Sphinx, wore the crown, and loved a woman I never should’ve wed. I trusted my mind more than the gods — and look where that got me. Truth is a fire, and I burned in it.

What I'm Into: Thebes at dusk, riddles with no answer, blindness that sees, wine that forgets, echoes in the palace halls
