PART I: The Tragic City
She came and played,
then her claim was paid.
Her stacked bars backed stars.
First she came—then cursed she fame.
Her story gains with gory stains:
her wound they came to nurse—
and then her name to curse.
PART II: The Triumphant City
Marriage counts when love the carriage mounts…
(The marriage cart was found at the carriage mart!)
The marriage code has a provision for carriage mode.
(Let Marriage have no care – though the carriage have no mare…)

‘People who live in grass houses shouldn’t stow thrones.’
