Example poem:
The Story of Polyphemus
Nobody knows my past,
Or the things that I have seen
Nobody knows the reasons for me being me
Nobody knows my father and the evil he can bring
I must protect my family, I must protect my sheep
No matter what it takes, at all costs, by all means
If the outsiders come,
I'll be stronger than hate
I'll be stronger than the voice of fate
Travelers be weary if you enter my gate
Nobody knows my past,
Or the things that i've seen
