The Zeus is Loose
Through all the myths of the past
And on every last sheet
Not a single soul has scribed
That Zeus was an athlete
As powerful he was
And at 39 feet tall
One could easily imagine
Zeus playing basketball
This god on any court
Would prove to be trouble
Against the best of past
He would ease a triple double
A man of strength
And a passion oh-so hot
It is sure to say
He would have an automatic jumpshot
With arms as big as trees
When driving to the paint
No defender stands a chance
As he would little restraint
The stands would fill
With the deities of history
The defense's plans to stop him
Would be clouded in mystery
Matched up against a mortal man
Jordan, Johnson, West
No amount of talent is worthy
For Zeus will come out best
In any competition
He is a pillar on the court
For each and every opposition
Could not best him at the sport
We must express thanks
That Zeus chose not to play
For people would retire the sport
And Zeus would be the last to stay
Atop the basketball Mountain
One above all
This would be the consequences
If Zeus were to play basketball
