Send out your would-be heroes, <br />I've already faced a bunch. <br />If they come early, they're breakfast. <br />Late arrivals are lunch. <br /> <br />I'm the biggest, baddest monster <br />That you'll ever see. <br />The best tactic when I arrive <br />Is to drop everything and flee. <br /> <br />A flock of sheep and a herd of swine <br />Sounds kind of yummy. <br />Tasty, slow-moving villagers <br />Bring a smile to my tummy. <br /> <br />Stay on your side of the river, <br />And everything will be fine. <br />Dare to enter my magical forest, <br />And surely you'll be mine.<br /><br />Bruce Larkin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-monster-s-warning/
