SHINING RISK, by                    
First Line: Cassandra sits beside my gate
Last Line: A hundred towered troys.


Cassandra sits beside my gate,
Subliminal and sure,
And plies me with her caveat
Against the insecure.

Discretion crossed with unbelief
Such latitude employs
That I have lost in shining risk
A hundred towered Troys.
