Starlight Brawl


The wind caressed her face and pulled her into the night
She drifted through the woods until she came across the fight
Man vs. beast
It was going to be a bloodbath to say the least
From her place behind the bushes, she was transfixed
The beast looked as if a bear, a wolf, and a rhinoceros were mixed
The man was tall and broad with a bulky outline
Every now and then a knife or a mouth full of teeth would shine
The fight seemed never-ending, although both were tiring
All the while she still sat there admiring
Wishing she could fight like that
The man was now winning and the beast knew it, he took to the sky and flew off like a bat
Her jaw dropped in surprise
And the man fell to the ground and could not rise.
She would have helped, but she was not even supposed to be here
So she ran to the house and slipped back in the mirror

  1. What a wonderfully bizarre idea! I especially like the last line and what it implies.
