Heroes and Anti-heroes

at the mercy

of the Muses

and their moods, 

in conjunction

with the Fates

and all their 

inscrutable dictates, 

within this Universe

of Unorthodoxy, 

where Destiny 

gets to challenge

Choice to a duel, 

though the perusal

of a Life lived, 

may render Winner

and Loser indistinct...
