Poetry Chapbook 10

Melting Pot

There’s a werewolf in the room below
I’d have got it but I was too slow
with sling and arrows and silver shot
(those candlesticks weren’t worth a lot?)
I saw the hairy beast last night
at my window – what a fright!
There’s nothing in the media
I opened Wikipedia
but what I’m really looking up
is can a werewolf have a pup?
I talked to Dad – he said not yet
he had it neutered at the vet.

Werewolves are very fast. Perhaps something other than sling shot and bow is needed.

Can't help thinking of Angua again here! :0)

Angua was the definitive werewolf!
