Mythica

An Adapted Sonnet On Positive Outcomes

Introduction

I thought I would write a poem of positive outcomes based on mythical figures. I have adapted the sonnet form but this is fourteen lines but they flow into each other over what would have been verse splits so it is effectively a single fourteen-line verse.

I've included "Jason and the Argonauts" by XTC as Jason is the first charater I refer to in my poem.
