Separating One Ambition From Another

I hope you know who Icarus was

and his place in mythology?

Wait,

was that Greek or Roman?

I suppose it doesn't matter

too much as long as we have an

understanding

on who he was.

Is that important?

It is in order to establish

an intellectual common

ground

that we will build off of.

Perhaps we could talk about

the island of Minos

and that one mythic creature....

.....

oh yes....

the minotaur.

I don't think these references are

obscure enough.

The image may be a bit

too clear,

the wordplay a bit too

simplistic if

rarely even present.

Let's pause here.

The weather is gorgeous

outside.

I hear they are having a

barbecue at their new house.

I'm sure there'll be plenty

to drink.
