The Troll (part 2)
Before my eyes stood a hideous Troll
In all its Hellish infamy
Yellow eyes glaring with rancor in its heart
Massive arms rippling with barely contained fury
It continued to rise forth
From a shimmering portal of ominous darkness
This was definitely not the Fairy Tale Troll
My parents read to me as a child
No, this was a Netherworld creation of evil
With gluttonous hunger the Troll advanced
Sure that I would be the greatest victory of its immortal life
Preparing for the eminent feast before it
The Troll opened its maw
Showing yellowed needle sharp teeth
I cowered in fear
As the shadow of this Hellish beast
Slowly blocked out the light
Leaving terror in its absence.
