Posidens Hate


Athena,

for she erks my mood,

I was looking for towns,

I want all of the coast,

I found this village and so did she,

though Athena wants to be in charge.

I told the towns people to chose, though they were scared.

My niece understood the villagers worries.

She challenged me, Posiden the god of the sea, to a election or challenge.

I gave a stream to the village, a stream of fresh water, or so they though,

not really fresh,

salt water.

Athena, she gave an olive tree

the towns people valued this more

I, Posiden declared my niece, Athena the winner

Due to her watching over this town,

we now have a town named

Athens.
