The Odyssey

The Odyssey1997



Odysseus:
Do you see, you gods of sea and sky? I conquered Troy. Me Odysseus, a mortal man of flesh and blood and bone and mind! I do not need you now, I can do anything.

Poseidon:
Odysseus, why do you defy me?

Odysseus:
Who are you?

Poseidon:
It is I Poseidon, god of the wine dark sea. You have forfeited for forgetting how I helped you.

Odysseus:
Help me? For ten years you played with us as toys. For ten years you let blood spill to your shores.

Poseidon:
But it was my serpent who silenced Laocoon or your horse was doomed, yet you refuse to give thanks. You forget, a man is nothing without the gods. You will suffer for this offense. For your arrogance, you will drift on my sea for an eternity, never again will you reach the shores of Ithaca.

Odysseus:
You cannot stop me!

Poseidon:
You will suffer.
