Taming the Beast

Deep inside his cavernous labyrinth

The beast lies sleeping

Dreaming his dreams,

His dastardly, bastardly beastie dreams of

Mauling, marauding and masticating

His helpless victims

Down to the bone.

 

Those victims, all zombie toads,

So unaware of the fate that awaits

In his bone crushing jaws.

The unfathomed likelihood he will awake

With fire in his belly and

Blood on his tongue.

 

What can we do?

 

Call for Sir Lancelot across the deep channel?

Cry for Quixote to ride on his quest?

The beast must be tamed

Else he be vanquished.

The village demands

Someone rise to the test.
