Clamor
Hey Poseidon! Ulysses yelled
At the great god of unlimited ocean
When will your furious blind anger end?
When will you stop throwing me
Aimlessly from island to island?
Do you see how your raging temper
Is building up my immortality?
I will live in song eternally
While you will be remembered
Only because of me
Let me go back to my little house
And grow old
Doing that little human job
That you couldn’t do
Even though you are a god
