Poseidon

Writer's picture: Adam GreeneAdam Greene


I was

The King when I

Walked in to the

Tide and

Sang my last

Song for

Poseidon


He called out my

Name and

Then he dragged me

Down and

Told me to

Sit there

Beside him


In a thousand years I’ll be no

More

Like the dust of shells on the sea

Floor

Tell me that you saw some life in

Me

‘Fore I’m at the bottom of the

Sea


Antiqui-

Ties never

Held any

Flame un-

Til I

Arrived in

His Garden


Then I broke

Down and I

Begged for his

Bowl that

I might yet

Deserve his

Pardon


In a thousand years I’ll be no

More

Like the dust of shells on the sea

Floor

Tell me that you saw some life in

Me

‘Fore I’m at the bottom of the

Sea


I’m not a stranger

I’m not a stranger to you

I’m not a stranger, am I?

I’m not a stranger to you
