4.0

At times a bit of a word salad, at other times poetic:
'As Babs eyes Bob, Bob snaps time open.'
Which even makes some sense, given the 'plot'.

Where a typo is noted - "Ariadne, I felt, negates heros [sic]." the [sic] itself is of course later part of the palindrome.
And within the palindromic story, there's a palindromic refrain near the start and end which I thought worked really well.
Perhaps this is all just warmup for reading something like Finnegans Wake...
