About the Poem

A funny poem about sheep. Most people think of sheep as cute, cuddly creatures, which is why they're so easily caught off guard... (the people that is, not the sheep).

Beasts in The Mist

They gather in the full moon's light
On lonely roads at dead of night
With shining eyes that pierce the mists
They prey on passing motorists

Sure footed over rock and crag
A victim fresh to feast they drag
And all that’s left when feeding's through
Is a baseball cap and a training shoe

No wolf or hound will prowl the moors
And ghosts and ghouls stay home indoors
So when shrill screams disturb your sleep
Beware the Cumberland killer sheep
