Saturn; a Summary of the Percy Jackson War

The father of Jupiter’s fall is predicted

As he lays siege to places protected.

The mighty Saturn trapped inside a mortal,

With no second thoughts,

Completely immoral.

He shudders and laughs and plots with mother Earth, While she’s wreaking havoc in her bloody hearth.

Hope is trapped, not let go of just yet,

And sleep will pounce for every trick and bet.

Death hides low with his forces intact,

While his son tries to keep the world in act.

Oceanus rages against the blue waves,

A battle to be fought within their own ways.

And Saturn still wages this destructive war,

With no feeling about the all-bloody roar.

The war will last till they face their fears,

And blood won’t stop till there’s an ocean of tears.
