After reading the excerpt, a comparison between Odysseus and his men an image of helplessness, is the right answer.
It is because here the character of Cyclops gets revealed. He is savage, brutal and treats humans almost like animals.
How helpless the men of Odysseus are feeling in front of Cyclops.
