10,857. IT'S ALL GREEK, TOMMY

IT'S ALL GREEK, TOMMY
I guess Ulysses started out on
the high seas for a reason, though
it never was clear to me. Transporting
figs, I guess, those Greek bananas.
Troy and Carthage and all Thrace
is lost too. I threw that in for
good measure. One has a white
horse and another has a dark
horse. It's all so mentally tasking
that I can't understand what they're
asking. Oh people, this quest, it
is lost. Has been squandered on
these wine-dark seas.

Now, for the Odyssey and Homer,
that makes a bit more sense. Battles
and forgings and desire's recompense.
