THE BEAST OF WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN
I once knew a 'duck' of the nearer EAST
Who decided to battle the mighty BEAST ~
The beast of WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN.
Her beak being sharp while her feathers LIGHT
She flapped both her wings, taking yonder FLIGHT ~
Toward the beast of WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN.
The beast was dozing ~ in a peaceful DAZE
As the 'duck' darted through the endless MAZE ~
The maze of WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN.
Her beak found its mark in the midst of its HEAD
And it let-out-a-shreak! then the beast lay DEAD ~
DEAD on WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN.
Then the 'duck' did return to the nearer EAST
Having dispatched with the 'mighty' yet pitiful BEAST ~
THE BEAST OF WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN.
If you do hear a "shriek" on that mount some DAY
Know its the ghost of that "QUIET-FRAY!"
The ghost of a beast who had passed AWAY!
Now the 'duck' rests in peace & can even sleep
Since she settled "old scores" of her flock "served as MEAT"
To the once-mighty BEAST...
THE BEAST OF WATCHUNG MOUNTAIN!!!
