The Saga of Charlie Mckee

Charlie McKee against wise advice, Went into Lucas Swamp cold as ice, Told of savage beast that kills on sight, Thought he was day’s true king and dark’s bold knight. He held the Swamp’s risks were oversold, But threat of dangers had been foretold, He yielded to his gigantic ego, And misjudged the Swamp’s vile entrapment pro. There are eyes on you, a vile fiend, Dark probing eyes of livid green, O'er the jaws of a razor-sharp grin, Pearly whites much like needle pins. On windy nights, folk can hear howling, From out of Lucas Swamp, loud growling, Bloodcurdling screams fill their souls with fright, Charlie went in the Swamp, but didn’t come out.
