I can see the sun. The stars, the moon;
all in one beautiful day. As I turn over to the desk and see my perfect day
ruined at once. The debts overboard the cabinets and the refrigerator is empty.
I need a job! I need money! My eyes can’t turn away from the horrible signs
saying, PAST DUE. I have to act fast.
My name is Poseidon Alexander Opentheseas
and as you might know, I’m the god of the seas. I have golden thrones and
kingdoms and crowns, but my story isn’t that simple. I earned my position in
Mount Olympus, by working all day and sadly, begging. Zeus is my brother that
loves me and I’m sure he will understand my troubles. Yet sometimes he underestimates
me.
Of course I can rule greatly! Just
because I started off broke, doesn’t mean I can’t be king. I mean, I created
the horse and the dolphin! If that was done by me, I must be really smart! Yet,
why isn’t it showing right now?
God Zeus, brother, please let me be your
replacement. If I ruled the 7 seas, I can rule the world! You know I have great
qualities and will be successful on your throne. I know you better than any
other candidate, I know your deepest thoughts and feelings.
I can rule like I know you
would like it to be.
Now, I see myself riding my chariot and
holding my trident up in the air as I come closer to Mount Olympus. Empty
cabinets, full refrigerator and signs that say, PAID.
