My first attempt at poetry in a loooonnng time. I don't remember the genesis of it, save that the idea it gave me of depicting various monsters in literary form was the genesis of The Pantheon itself. It's got a bit of morality thrown into it too. Far too often we see other people in the world as evil when their choices in life were quite limited. Is an evil committed strictly for the purpose of survival really evil? Not really. Of course, with humans, there's a lot of nuance in our actions, but with a beast or a natural force? A hurricane and a swarm of mosquitoes are equally evil, in that, well, they aren't. 

To be honest, this is me trying to make up for missing my usual deadline time. Apologies.
