Poseidon, the Magnificent Dreamer
Poseidon was a god who loved to Dream; he, unlike his older brother Hades, and younger Brother Hesus, began to dream of the World of Oblivion With his head held high and his bra strap held over his chest, he would imagine and dream of mermen living under the Sea. His pores would flatten and his pro maculate discord...

To Ramesses In Poseidon Depths Lie
Metal, blood, and mascara Half sunk a shattered visage lies, A wrinkled lip, a sneer of cold command, Of boundless and bare Along the level, sands stretch far away. the imagery of night, snow, virginity, lipstick on cigarettes, cars trapped in the snow, dingy white sheets, and the chosen few …. I still drink cider and black Metal and blood and...

Poseidon
Planet with blue azure as the color Orbits are elliptic and distant from the solar Satellite here larger than the dwarfs is Triton moon Equinox occurs after four score years soon Inkling of diamond rain is seen which is quite quaint Dominated with ice as sun rays are unduly faint Over here is the great dark spot which is too odd Neptune...

Daughters of Poseidon
imagine what fantastical wonders besides the fish swim in realms of oceans deep with fantails that swish when the full moon is glowing like a treasure chest of shiny gold doubloons and starlight brightens the sea mermaids will be found smiling as they dance in rhythmic reverie their giggles create bubbles in pearlescent hues while the scalloped scales on their tails gleam in shades of...

Premium Member Ode To Poseidon
Cronus would never be defeated, or so he thought. Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon a lesson taught. Zeus took the sky, Hades the underworld, Poseidon the sea. Poseidon became father of floods, hurricanes, storms, all three. He somehow also grabbed up horses, which seems a stretch. But this is Greek mythology, thus a teensy bit of a far-fetch. The Romans borrowed the...

Premium Member By the Water's Edge
The immortal wind wakens, blows and whispers to the wynd of trees as they are wickedly uprooted and move in confusion across the countryside in complete chaos. Their roots scornful and unbelieving uplifted from unrest and upheaval from their unyielding ground. The water spans and stand, bend, and rise as Poseidon, the god who watches with...

Odysseus, Poseidon: the Final Confrontation Revised Twice
My friends all dead, Poseidon's gaze falls last Upon me, broken, clinging to a raft, He low’rs his fist, and shatters present, past And future… now a yards-long broken shaft Is all I have to save me from the sea, I choke and spit, and swim for shore -- ‘tis near -- Then find the Cyclops swimming after me… Though blind, he...

The Curse of the Dead Sea Dark ghosts traveling through the chilled air mist where rare rough rivers, eddied and revolved, in twists around into a violent, furious funnel offshore, as this turbulent salt sea of iniquity opens up its storied, salted bowels with its turgid moving fluids drowning into a space of predestined bedded death—for all who unknowingly venture into the...
