Zeus's electric game
Zeus prepared in the locker room
Waiting for his next game
He was a pro basketball player
Soon to be in the hall of fame
Zeus got to the court lightning fast
His electric moves kept defenders on their feet
But the fans seeing him play
Kept them on the edge of their seat
Zeus had the ball in his hands
He was ready to play
But he had no idea
Who was coming today
His rival Hades
Had emerged on the court
He challenged him
“Play me at your own sport”
“You’re on Hades”
Zeus said to his foe
“But after this game
You’ll only feel woe”
And so it began
As the ball was tipped
Zeus had the ball
Until he tragically slipped
Hades fired away
Firing the first shot
However he fell victim
To a thunderous swat
Zeus made his shot
Scoring again and again
It wasn’t long before Hades
Fell to his brethren
And with that the game ended
A blowout at its finest
As Zeus was left
As the one true dynast
