aristos achaion

[futuraes]

odysseus spends ten years crossing borders nobody calls borders of anything yet

every shore asks him who he is

every king asks him what he brings

when he says home, they laugh

when he says war, they pray

no one calls him a criminal for wanting to return to a place that remembers his name

killer of suitors

athena’s greatest warrior

i wonder how many odysseuses drown now before we decide their story is epic enough to deserve mercy
