John Lawless Poet Rhyme

Release the Kraken

A storm is brewing
The waters bracken
As demon’s shout
Release the kraken

As windows shook
He woke in fear
The dreaded beast
Was coming near

He pulled the covers
Over his head
Said “he’ll never find me
In this bed”

After the storm
He shed his dread
The monster lived
Inside his head

For he had read
Of an ancient curse
Unleashed by writers
In cryptic verse

Gave me the feel of a spell unbinding. <3 John Lawless February 15, 2023 at 4:25 PM Thanks for stopping to read and comment I usually shout "RELEASE THE KRAKEN" when I let my grandkids out at the park.....
