Being the oik I am I had to look up "prolepsis." Having done so, this poem strikes me as one of the nastiest and most enjoyable I've read recently. Poor Cassie and Veruska. I'm sure when their bones are discovered Mister Stone will read this note again and smile.
"We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges." - Gene Wolfe
