Poem
You may not tend to believe me Perhaps you’ll start to suddenly Put your logic up on a shelf Open your mind and let yourself See things you never dared to see The year here was 1901 An unknown battle had begun No news on any TV show Or Orson on the radio Records hid, history undone Bored of the Loch, Nessie came first From below in the depths, she burst Icy shards and chill waters flood And a new taste for Yeti blood What an abominable thirst But Yeti was ready for her Hiding in snow with camo fur An ambush teamed up with Sasquatch They tried to take it up a notch She knew these two were amateur Nessie had backup too you know Have you met the Ogopogo? The hairy duo past their prime Put their BIG foot in it this time Until swooped in a flying foe The Mothman taking up the skies Could anybody prophesize? Even he began to pucker When came the fabled goat-sucker With Chupacabra laser eyes! They battled on, these beasts of lore A great and magic cryptid war! No end with all sides immortal Then they fought right through a portal! One witness left shook to the core Well that was me, I swear it’s true After they vanished, no one knew When they’d come back, or even where If it had been you standing there, Then the believer would be you.
