Olympian
adj. Relating to a mountain in Thessaly, once inhabited by gods, now a repository of yellowing newspapers, beer bottles and mutilated sardine cans, attesting the presence of the tourist and his appetite.
His name the smirking tourist scrawls Upon Minerva’s temple walls, Where thundered once Olympian Zeus, And marks his appetite’s abuse.
