THAT SWAMP THING

Mike Berger, PhD

The stories are told that
the Swamp thing is half man
and half alligator.

It hides in the swamp under
the black mud. It only comes
out when it’s hungry.

It hides behind an old tree
waiting for a curious little boy.

It jumps out and snaps the boys
head off and chews. He doesn’t
spit out the bones.

He doesn’t care for little girls.
They taste far too sweet. Little
boys tickle his tongue.

The monster is weird. He chews
away until he eats all of the boy.
For some strange reason, he doesn’t
eat the boy’s stinky feet.

I’m telling you, don’t go near that
dark swamp. The Swamp thing may
be waiting to have you for lunch.
