Prompt 41- Ladder
Crack, creak, crack creak!
Slowly, slowly up the ladder creep.
Don't let the rungs make a peep!
Or else you'll get a visit from none other than...The Monster of the Attic Deep!
Oh yes, my friends - he's very much real!
And since you ask with such valour, such zeal!
I'll this to you reveal-
He closely resembles an elephant seal!
I see to you this does not appeal
Indeed, you have turned green – perhaps teal!
And yes, indeed- to outwit him,
I'm afraid you cannot do it on a whim!
For you, my friends, that will spell the
END!
But you need only do as I say,
And you alone the monster shall obey.
All you must do, is seek the ladder
Of Oceandun-voo,
And your destiny you shall fulfil!
It all sounds so simple- but beware!
Great dangers you must face, and greater responsibilities you alone shall bear!
You must never on your journey forswear
Or else you will come to despair!
So, keep to your quest,
find that ladder, and pass the test!
And the Monster of the Deep Attic you shall best!
