No. It is not about Helen of Troy.
It's just about Homer Simpson and us.

Homer

 

Homer Simpson is not so bad

To my mind he’s just right.

 I think he is the perfect dad

I watch him every night.

 

I’m glad they made him yellow

At first I thought it odd.

It took some time to swallow

Now I’ve given it the nod.

 

The story line is full of strife

Impossible yet true .

It’s pretty close to real life

Just as odd as me and you.

 

Life isn’t logical

It isn’t quite right.

It’s strange and it’s comical

And it’s not black and white.

It is an odyssey, isn't it?
