they set out to take on the
massive evil beast, grabbing hold of
tail
torso
back
neck
then the head

gasping for air
it blew forth fire

they searched for the fabled
weak spot between four
scales

but his strength outdid them all-
talons of six inches, eight inches, more
he grabbed them each and took to flight

flinging them against a mountain

but it was made of jello
this was their goal.
