    Hero of Ithaca

    Lost at sea
    For 20 long years
    This cannot be
    Fighting a battle
    Waging a war
    While suitors prattle
    Hated by the gods
    This hero of Ithaca
    Leading his squads
    Without food or drink
    Trapped on an island
    Their hearts sink
    He will prevail
    This hero of Ithaca
    They will tell his tale

    hopefully that calling him hero of ithaca doesnt coutn against me and it's kinda tough to write about because i'm only on the 4th chapter of the book but whatever i just feel like writing today, this is my fourth poem of the day now so i guess thats a record for me, it's not a big deal if i win or not but i guess it would be nice i just wanted to show some people my writing really although this really doesnt reflect my other poems (once again totally babbling on) so i guess im done
