Baba Yaga has refused for days
to leave her house
The other gods fear she’s
plotting against them.
From a poem they pick
Amphinomous,
The most nearly successful of
Penelope's suitors,
To go and talk to her.
Amphinomous
Wants no part of this. The
last time he agreed
To visit a woman he ended up
staying years
And being killed by
Telemachus, whom he’d liked.
Too, he is not sure these are
really gods.
Who is the thin black man with
a top hat?
Why is that the woman next to
him
Balancing a cup on her nose?
Still, he supposes
That he’ll end up going. He
almost survived
Ten years courting Penelope;
how hard can it be
To have a glass of tea with
Baba Yaga?
