Towering Heavenly wood Mount Olympus awaits Hermes hustles Wings flailing Seeking higher ground Elemental gossip. Aphrodite's eros oozes bombastically from the cargo net onlookers salivate. Poseidon glares from the pit monitoring his realm for rapacious rambunctious rascals. Apollo's mirth emanates atop the monkey bars emotions elevate. Ares hangs by fingertips below scanning for signs of his next blow. Persephone checks herself slide in-view wandering if she'd ever get that tattoo. Hades peers up through the cracks from down bellow Lamenting on his bad boy role. Artemis finds her center in no time stat balance beam barely buckles. Sticky quicksand swallows my feet. The arena's stacked. Better get a move on Mom's sure to call grape juice slurped bugger all.
