"'The Beast'"

Inside this dark and dreary tale
Winter is bitter, darkness prevails
In the dock ships lower sails
A mist appears of rain and hail

The beasts awakens in the dock
Bursts free from his crate, holding stock
Ambles through fields, scaring the flock
Up to the house door, bolted, locked

The beast dug claws into the floor
And smashed his huge frame at the door
One time, two times, three times, four
Until the wood withstood no more

Inside the house the family screamed
Awoken from their restless dreams
Beside the fire the beast’s eyes gleamed
Enraged and angered, so it seemed

With its huge claws it slung and slashed
The mother’s chest was cut and gashed
The Father swung his rope and lashed
The beast was caught, it struggled and thrashed

The father chopped the beast’s huge head
Black blood sprayed on the floor, not red
He dragged the beast to the town and said
“I caught the beast, but now he’s dead”

And there was I, expecting a post about Crowley.

Good though.

I wanted to use bars of four.

It was a homage to your "not by spoon" thing I read

Meh.
Middle-ground poetry.

Kyz: can do better.

That was damn brilliant.

It's not hard to rhyme 'ed' by the way. It does kind of ruin the effect created, unless that was the intention. It does look rather ridiculous.

You haven't just watched Disney's Beauty and the Beast have you?

Don't be a b@sta@rd. I don't see you doing any better so you can't talk.

I will have to question your sense of humour then.

"The father chopped the beast’s huge head

Is this supposed to be comedy, cause it's hilarious!

head/red/said/dead... lol

Nice one.

I might have a bash at something like this later.
