Orca Saves Poseidon
Lightning illuminated who orca saved
It was Poseidon of course
Lean, tanned, muscular, god of the sea
The lesser gods shook with envy
and the sea goddess smiled,
hoping they might be his
chosen tonight.
The azure skies were pleased as was
the black of the water and rhinestone stars
Awed by the sight of both the orca and
Poseidon, the father god of the Baltic Sea.
Both ready for whatever came their way
with a strength usually unseen but graced
by a flash of Zeus’s own thunderbolts tonight
The goddesses sighed.
