CLVII
PARAGON:
"There was one good
and one evil,
Queen ordered the death
of Princess.
Why continue?
You know the drill
You know
the huntsman, right Travis?"
CLVII
TRAVIS:
"He was one good
and one evil.
A man
who was very confused.
Why continue,
I know the drill
I am the one
to be accused."
CLIX
TRAVIS:
"Would it matter
what truth I speak?
Would it still
sound believable?
When it's still up
to the critique,
And I'm marked
abominable?"
CLX
TRAVIS:
"I am what you see,
what you heard.
A man,
rewarded for a hit.
But old Mary
made me feel stirred,
So Snow White
ran away from it."
CLXI
PARAGON:
"And so here you say
she was freed,
That a once fragile soul
now soars?
How 'bout the soul
that was burried?
Who faught
unvoluntary wars?"
CLXII
PARAGON:
"How far
were you willing to go?
As far as
to make one's bones then?
I know
old Mary trusted you.
You pained her once more,
once again."
