Old Wizard Opens the Gate

Old Wizard Opens the Gate

32 lines


The old wizard
Dressed in black robes
And a long-flowing
ZZ top-style beard
Assembled his motely crew.

He had discovered
The whereabouts
Of the infamous Necronomicon.

And was determined
To open the portal
To other worlds
That night.

The black cat
Looked amused
At the humans.

Who pranced about
The fire
Throwing a sparkle
On the flames.

He waived
His magic wand
As they chanted

To open the portal
The door opened.
To other worlds.

Monsters came through the portal.

Giant apes, space aliens, banshees, bats, Bigfoot, big game hunters, centaurs, Cerberus, cheetahs, crows, coyotes, Cthulhu with tentacles, dragons, demons, dinosaurs (raptors and T. Rex), devils, dwarfs, gangbangers, gangsters, gangster rappers. Gators, goblins, ghouls, ghosts, giants, giant ants, giant wasps, giant spiders, giant lobsters, gunmen, government bureaucrats, hellhounds, holocausts, imps, Imperial Stormtroopers from Star Wars, naked incubus, leprechauns, jihadis, Lucifer, lions, politicians, mafia made men, ravens, monsters, orcs, reporters, bewitching beautiful yet deadly sirens, Satan, satyrs, snakes, winged monkeys, serpents, special forces soldiers, tigers, werewolves, wolves, witches, warlocks, wraiths, wild things, yeti, and zombies all staring at him. A half-centaur, half-pig monster with two heads–Putin and Trump led the mob.
Which swarmed through the gate.
