I started on my journey,
stumbling over jagged rocks,
They dug into my feet,
and got inside my socks.

Then I heard a seagull,
scream across the sky,
A warning I was feeling,
A horrendous, helpless cry.

Infront of me a Siren,
One with silky hair,
Put out her hand towards me,
Intensity in her stare.

I proceeded with caution,
Intuition shouting "It's wrong!",
But she was singing for me,
A delicious, enchanting song.

As I crawled towards her,
Offer laid out in her palm,
Her singing turned into screaming,
Talons scratching down my arm.

Behind me I heard a laughing,
That reverberated the earth,
Poseidon stormed out the ocean,
Bellowing a mighty curse.

Then again that seagull,
Screaming across the sky,
Swooping down to help me,
But getting sand in my eye.

Poseidon and the siren,
Between them shared a kiss,
Dug their hands into my abdomen,
pulling out my ribs.

Together they gnawed at them,
Consuming one by one,
As I watched in ****** agony,
Burning in the sun.
