She, the mortal woman, looked away -
The rain should rinse away the salt -
She turned, a consequence although
No single person held the fault.
Or - did the man look back too eager
When she could not yet feel the sun
And after all his work brought doubt
Withal, without - What had they done?
So, it matters not if she was Lot's wife or Eurydice
It takes just One in love to turn and beget misery.
