The Idiot and the Oddity Part 5

Now a word from the Author. I hope all the readers are familiar with, Homer's "lliad and the Odyssey" From which this was inspired. In addition to what you may remember of Greek mythology, I would like to add That the Greek God Aries, presumably never took sides in war, he was content to let men fight it out themselves, but this time, was different, and here is his song.... ARES’S SONG I was quite content Never giving my consent In any godly matter that occurred Now some don’t think that’s right Leaving humans left to fight But to me, all this bickering absurd I really hate to choose Who should win and who should lose But there’s one town that I thoroughly enjoy I love Troy I love Troy I love every Mother’s son And soldier boy What a town, just look around In a minute you’ll be dancing upside down So much to eat, Oh what a treat This city is on fire, feel its heat If you’re going to live it boy There’s no city like my Troy I love Troy I love Troy I love Troy Sure, I’m the God of War But, I never felt this way before So here, I’ll say it one more time Though the Gods may stand divided In my Heart I have decided There’s no reason, that I should be playing coy I love Troy!
