An exiled whale came up out of boundless sea <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One morning, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An exiled whale ended up in\nmy dark cave below <\/p>\n\n\n\n

the Acroceraunian Mountains, <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I laid food before her,\ngrilled steak and wine<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then she began telling me\nabout hidden wonders <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the deep oceans that only\nshe had seen<\/strong>\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roman Warships with their\nbroken masts, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still standing deep in the\nsea,  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About gold fishes, sea stars,\nsharks and mythical octopuses living together under the ocean<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I began telling the story of the voyages of the Argonauts,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the broken masts,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And of the unfortunate warriors of Odysseus,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How they\ncrossed the ocean, as told through the\nlegends<\/strong>!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a dark and stormy\nnight, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waves crashing and\nhowling wind, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the threshold of my dark\ncave, they stopped<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I welcomed them cordially, as\nis our custom<\/strong>,  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As if they were in the god\u2019s\nhome<\/strong>!   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That all night,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We drank old wine and roasted\nmeats on a spit,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When they all got drunk, they\ndrew their sword<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And up sprang the angry; they\ndrilled out my only one eye\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early next morning, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They sneaked out of my dark\ncave! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me and I, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mighty Polyphemus of these Acroceraunian Mountains caves,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s taking me three\nthousand years to quench my blind rage, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still hearing sirens\u2019 voices <\/strong>of foreign ships that pass in the\nnights,<\/strong>   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All these that happened,<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I told to the whale on a long\nlonely night<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the exiled whale beyond\nthe boundless seas<\/strong>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then she as an old friend\nof mine, forever a loyal friend,<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As she left, she promised\nshe\u2019d come back again<\/strong>\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the dawn lighted<\/strong>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She walked down to wet sandy\nshore<\/strong>\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut when I\u2019ll be back at\nsome time, I\u2019ll tell you the entire story; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happened to Trojan War\nsurvivors, after that fatal night<\/strong>!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where they went, where they\nfled<\/strong>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What really happened three\nthousands years ago, in those <\/strong>deadly\nnights! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then the Whale, my best\nfriend sped away to other<\/strong> seashores<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I turned my back on bright sun<\/strong>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And sank back into the old\ndarknessof mine<\/strong>!   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ah, Giant Polyphemus, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who locked you up for\ncenturies, living alone in this dark cave?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Far, far away, out of this\ncruelty of human spirit? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
