HAHAHAHAHA! "His ankle was always killing him." Priceless. I love this grand allusion to 'Oedipus Rex.'

Haha. Loved it. Especially the part with the ankle and music part.

It's been a while since I've been on this site, but now that I'm back, I figured I'd take a look at some of your more recent work.
I gotta say, I'm glad I did!
I love references to myth and classical literature, and you did a very good job of portraying a classical character in post-modern light.
I have always wondered though... was the outcome his fault? Or was it fate? Surely, he did not know who his birth parents were. But then, is fate really at play?
I do love the classics.

really funny; especially the bit about his ankle.

the title really excited me, but the content sort of didn't. it's so overarchingly literal that there's no time for an interpretation. it's just there. and at a point of such strange stastis. better language and analogies and metaphors and whatnot. i'd like that much more.

hahaha... This is awesome. I can totally see Oedipus in this situation (and it fits so fit). Great Work, CC!

Well thank you for the inspiration to look up Oedipus. He's in a Regina Spektor song that I'm infatuated with, also.

This is very interesting, I like it =]

You're much more talented than the majority of the people who use this site.

i fucking love this. oedipus rex was a good tragedy (unlike julius caesar), with a real plot behind it. great work.
