He crushed the grass with a thunderous stomp
And passed through the dangerous, murky swamp

No creature lurking behind the dark trees

Would dare show themselves, they were ill at ease.

Just for good measure, he threw in a glare
Aimed towards the shadows, to give them a scare.

He trudged through rivers, climbed over mountains

Swung across canyons, swam through great fountains

Finally he came across a creature
Ten feet tall with gruesome, bearish features
"You foolish creature! No monster shall live!"
Just as our hero was about to give
One last blow, to declare him the winner
He heard a voice: "Max! Come in for dinner!"
