A VIGNETTE, by                    
First Line: Cupid, playing blind man's buff
Last Line: Love was caught in psyche's hair.
Subject(s): Love; Psyche (mythology)


CUPID, playing blind man's buff,
Seized my Psyche's floating tresses.
Here is silken clue enough
To dispense with any guesses.
This is Psyche's golden fleece:
She's my prisoner, past release.
But the lookers-on declare
Love was caught in Psyche's hair.
