Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Antigone and Ismene meet by the gates
to decide the fate of polynice!.
Creon and the elders decree in hate
That traitors have no burial rights
Antigone's fury burns in her core
she knows the gods are on her side
Her brother died fighting a justified war
and he will have an afterlife
A sentry on orders from the king
Discovers the absence of polynice
and fetches young antigone
who confesses what she did that night
But creon is sure that she had help
and sends away for Ismene
who would rather lie and be put through hell
Than betray her sister Antigone
Haemon is an honest man
He lives with great nobility
Against his father, he takes a stand
to save ismene and antigone
He fails to persuade his stubborn father
to release this girl who controls his heart
He can't condone it and he would rather
never speak to him again, and soon departs
Greusome horrors are prepared
Her fate is to die in a vacant tomb
Steadfast antigone isnt scared
Head held high to meet her doom
In the chamber, dark and dismal
She hangs her self with her robes gold cord
Haemon stabs himself beside her
Inspired by antigones final words
Creons wife, kind Eurydice
Finishes her knitting and runs upstairs
to give her throat a fatal slice
Cursing creon with her final air
A creed born out of spite to keep his pride
It went against the gods and so he lost it
Tiresias warned him before his family died
Creon should have listened to the prophetWww@QuestionHome@Com
