R. Erin Lenth Poet Quatrain

Terrible Ten Horn

A creature with one horn,
Is quite fierce enough.
But a creature with ten?
That’s incredible stuff!

The rhinoceros, true,
Is a force to behold.
But the Terrible Ten Horn,
Is terror untold.

Pull back the curtain,
A coin for a show.
A peek at the beast,
And what do ya know?

He sits on a couch,
Eating chips from a can?
He drives a Ford Ranger?
He’s the average man.
