for Ariadne

"Sittin' on the shores of Dia,
watchin' the ships float away.
Sittin' on the shores of Dia,
left behind.

I left my home on Crete,
headed for the Athens bay.
Now, I got no one to meet me,
'cause my Theseus has gone astray.

So, I'm just-a sittin' on the shores of Dia,
watching my garments drift away.
Sittin' on the shores of Dia,
left behind."

my apologies to anyone who loves Otis Redding's "dock of the bay." kudos, however, to anyone who gets this reference--though I think there might only be one person who REALLY gets it, and she lives in Virginia. Hm... ah, well.

PS: that apology is really REALLY aimed at you, Dara. I'm really really sorry to be misusing this song like this... but its necessary, you gotta believe me...
