Don’t ask me why. Maybe at one point Poseidon had told the Greeks, Just pour me a (color) (animal) and we’ll call it even, and the Greeks thought he wanted an actual (color) (animal). If you forgot to sacrifice, there was a good chance your (noun) would get smashed on the (noun), or (verb) by a sea (noun), or captured by pirates with (adjective) personal hygiene.

Still, Poseidon (verb) it together most of the time. He tried to (verb) Zeus’s orders, though Zeus annoyed him (adverb). Whenever those two started (verb ending in ing), the other gods (verb) their seat belts, because a fight between the (noun) and the (noun) could rip the world apart.
