Beast

Facing off

against the beast in front of me,

watch her boastfully roar.

Watch me yell out in return,

I'm not afraid,

I've done this many times before.

 

She's fifty-two feet tall.

Can I beat her? I already know.

She lumbers forward, now

watch me grow to twice her size

I swipe out and down she falls.

This poem was more than I expected when I started reading it.  Love how the 2nd stanza took me by surprise.
