I'm Looking for the Poet of Troy

I'm looking for the poet of Troy because Troy didn't tell its story
Can a people be strong without having its own poetry?
I wanted to speak in the name of the Absentee
In the name of the Trojan poet
I bear the obedient language like a cloud
I bear the obedient language like a cloud
