How the Girl Tamed the Beast

Under the light of a calming blue moon,

Someone erupted, and chaos ensued.

No one remembers why they were fighting,

Or why their land was barren and blighted.

So, off they went, riled up and fiery,

In search of a scapegoat to tax with their anguish.

The child they found appeared unescorted,

With an innocence that drew in the wicked.

So, they followed her home and beat her down,

While the ground rumbled with a distant snarl.

No one but the girl heard the thunderous growl.

A monster was rising in the depths of her home.

As their abuse grew, so did the beast,

A creature grappling with too short a leash.

At a break in the strife, the girl escaped.

She ran down the stairs to her lupine mate.

She cautiously approached its dark domain,

Scars glistening with the memories of the fray.

With its chain gripped tightly, she took the lead,

But all the beast wanted was to be free.

It clawed at her skin until finally,

She let the beast go, quite unsteadily.

Then what happened next occurred suddenly,

And the villagers were caught all unwittingly.

The beast slashed away at this loathsome scene.

Since that day, it’s said the girl can be seen

Sitting in peace while her Anger roams free.
