GIGANtic Hog Ensnared (Valkyrie)
Staggering from the roadhouse, howling liquor at the moon,
Strategically well-dressed, I smile at the great goon.
Weeknight when most have more sense, sly words distract. Promises,
Soft lullaby on the breeze, offering more later on,
Holding his gaze as they leave, punters go home, skirmishes.
His beard ruffles to his chest, as dirty claws scratch at head,
And we are alone tonight, under moonlight’s gleam, red.
Taking his giant, rough paw, I lead him to the old farm,
Assenting ego follows, for what woman can do harm?
Through mire we slowly trudge, we cannot arrive too soon,
Staggering from the roadhouse, howling liquor at the moon.
His beard ruffles to his chest, as dirty claws scratch at head,
Unbalanced but desperate, to follow a strange being,
Desirous though most flaccid, unlikely worthy in bed.
Inside barn doors my world resides, hungry wolves baying for blood,
Staggering in the farmhouse, howling wolves baying for blood.
Well done! A GIGANtic accomplishment! Engaging poem. Really enjoyed –
