Polyphemus+3



My fellow Cyclopes: Where my father, Poseidon and I failed, We will succeed! Bringing ruin to Odysseus and his kingdom! I did not invite you to my cave for futile banter, But to plan the downfall of Odysseus. For it was three years ago to this day, He had wandered into my house of black death and eternal torment. In desperation, he blinded me, Rendering me unable to pay back Odysseus for his actions tenfold! For I shall use the same weapon against him! I prayed for my father's aid, But he, the mighty wielder of the trident, Still could not intervene with fate. Rendered useless, I have spent Countless days dreaming of Odysseus, His blood spilled on his throne as an exemplification of all Who dare to stand up to my brute strength and heritage. I demand of you all, the proud Cyclopes, Avenge my suffering! Bring unbearable chastisement upon Odysseus for this great injustice. For not only did he destroy my eye, He has brought shame to our proud race By destroying the symbol of our people… Our uniqueness.
