The dative in the prepositional proximal εν, “to” or “towards” fire, πυρ signifies the pre-Homeric death drive. θανατοσ is driving, reappropriating dirt, spears, and the incinerated corpse that is designated on foreign shores. The landmass that is composed as the presencing of the baneful work and wrath. Homer’s Μηνιν αeιδε θεα, the speech act, eliciting a Muse’s singing. Speaking is the prepositional going towards that fire, πυρ subjects the post-aειδωε to the delicate feasting and bird alike.
