He could have tricked him into leaving the cave so they could escape, or he could of poisoned the wine so he would die then find a way out.
Polyphemus laments, recalling when the seer Telemus told him that he would one day be blinded by Odysseus. The cyclops then calls out to his father Poseidon, and asks him to curse Odysseus. He asks him to kill Odysseus before he returns home or if Odysseus is fated to return home, then to ensure that he arrives alone on someone else's ship, having lost all of his crew, and with trouble in his home.
After his men stabbed Polyphemus' (cyclops) eye in the cave, he ties each to the belly of 3 rams. Since everyone else was already tied up he had no one to tie him and had to hold on to the belly of the ram for over 16 hours.
Odysseus meets Elepenor, a comrade of his, and Antikleia, his mother.

The cyclops said that Odysseus will never reach his home land in Ithaca. ======================================================= Odysseus, the greek hero, according to Homer's epic poem, tried to return home with his men, after the fall of Troy. Their journey to Ithaca was full of adventures and lasted for ten years. At one stage they were captured by cyclops, a group of one-eyed, man-eater giants. They escaped by deceiving and blinding one of them, Polyphemus, the son of Poseidon, the sea god. Polyphemus cursed Odysseus and his men by imploring his father that they could never reach their home land, nor see their own home and friends again. But, if they still do, than "...let him come late, in evil plight, with all his comrades dead, in someone else's ship, and find troubles in his household."

I'd say the obvious thing is that Polyphemus trapped Odysseus and his men in his cave and threatened to eat them. Other than that Odysseus' cleverness protects them fromanything else Polyphemus tries to do. He was rash when he shouted out his real name to the cyclops though as Polyphemus' father is Poseidon and he calls upon him to avenge his blindness.

The cyclops Polyphemus is not, no. But someone else named Polyphemus is. Godlike Polyphemus is mentioned by Nestor in his speech to Agamemnon and Achilles in Book 1 (Line 264). This is possibly the Polyphemus who is an Argonaut. It is probably not the cyclops.

Odysseus tells her how their bed was made, and she knows no on else could know how the bed was made.

Their is no possible way you could escape a black hole. If light cant escape it, what else is possibly faster and lighter?if i may disagree the subatomic particle called a "neutrino" is faster than light and therefore could be able to surpass the speed of light and escape the gravity of a black hole.please correct me if I'm wrong my reason is based on theory
the phaiakians bring him home...everyone else dies
Odysseus is treated as a guest by the Phaeacians because he didn't want them to find out his true identity or else they would have killed him.
NO! Guinea Pigs should never be in real glass like that! They need to have bars over it or else they could escape
