Beochicken Verse II
ONCE THEY BEGAN THE HUNT
FROM THAT POINT HENCE
THE CHAMPION WOULD BE BEASTLY
BEFORE HE WENT TO FIGHT
FIRST THE CHAMPION WOULD PARTY
HIS FOLLOWERS WERE AS BOISTEROUS AS HE
MANY A FAIR HEN WAS WOOED
BEOCHICKEN CLASHED WITH A FEW ROO'
THOUGH NONE OF IT BROUGHT BLOOD NOR FEATHER
FROM THEIR CELEBRATION THEY FELL
UNSTEADY AND JOYOUS
INSTANTLY FELLED TO REGRET
THE THREAT CUT THROUGH
THE WORLD WAS LIKE A TOY
DARKNESS SWIRLED IN HIS WAKE
BEAST AND FOWL FELL AS HE PASSED
THE LORDS GATHERING ENDED BLOODY
BEOCHICKEN STOOD FORTH FROM HIS MEN
THEY HAD BEEN TO HUNT IT DOWN
THAT WOULD NOT DO NOW
WINGS SPREAD AND NECK RUFFLED
SCRAMBLING TO THE TWISTED FOWL
THROWING ASIDE THE FEW LEFT LIVING
THE HERO AND THE THREAT STRUCK HEAVY
ONCE MORE THEY STRUCK AT ONE ANOTHER
THE DUEL WAS ROUGH AND THE THREAT STUCK HARD
THE CHAMPION OF CHICKENS BROKE AGAINST IT
BUT HE WOULD NOT FALL ALONE
THE HERO'S BEAK CRACKED
BUT THE THREAT LOST ITS WING
TORN ASUNDER BY THE CHAMPION'S MIGHT
THE THREAT WAS FORCED TO FLEE
NO MORE WAS THE TASK AS LOW
THIS WAS A JOB NO LONGER
NOW BEOCHICKEN WAS DRIVEN
ONCE IT WAS OVER AND DONE WITH
THE THREAT WOULD BE FILET
