The Odyssey: Homer(Odysseus)
THE ODYSSEY; HOMER
Perhaps,He'd been dead,caught at the claws of the sea:
The Akhaians had loan him to the whales,a meal.
The battle of troy weighed,threw him out of balance,
Cowardly rugged he'd given in,no longer stance.
Perhaps he'd journey along the route of Pylos,
Or zeus(father of all gods and men),had bethroted him to the Harlot.
Suitors bewitched by penelope's beauty,
drenched in waeve-trick,swimming in folly.
Telemakhos, astound at the ageless effort,
Perhaps his father's return is the dying carrot.
But woah!,Athena(the grey-eyed goddess),had had her way,
Oh see! Odyssey,the forgotten,to Ithaka,made his way!
