Young Boy- Hunting Of The Witch
Too Long For The Poetry Of The Hunt Challenge

A young boy
And his electronic toy
Shutting the door
“What are you looking for?”
Screams his mum
Knowing the workday was done
Disappearing out of sight
The adventurous growing knight
Headed towards the woods
Looking for no good
Despite being dark
The maturing youth, planned to hit the mark
With his trusted drone
Flown
Through the air
Buzzing sound that scares
Coming upon the rural house
Quietly, the young boy, acted like a mouse
Wanting information cheese
Daunting luring tease
All systems seemed to go
Carrying on, with the spying show
Needing pictures
Featuring thought to be witches
Dancing earning satanic riches
Perfectly he navigated the intrepid machine
Filming seductive teens
Until a giant entered the scene
“Young Boy!” He did scream
“I did not real lies it was you
Who,
Conjured up this nasty brew”
“Aye, they are my sirens.
I personally did the hiring
They perform for me
I give them a sizeable fee
Inspires me, ‘write better’
Just forget her,”
“Who?” The young boy chirped
Like an owl emotionally hurt.
“Your love,
The one innocent, white as a dove”
“She means nothing to me,”
The young boy decreed.
“She is a witch
A taunting greedy snitch
Gossiping brat
Vindictive verbal rat”
“And you came here
With your technology gear
Wanting proof
That will make everyone hit the roof”
“Yes, my dear sir
I want to curl her fir
Then have a laugh
Watching her frustrated wrath”
“If you must
I will not bust
Just will trust
This will only be an adolescent fuss”
Suddenly there was a crash
Drone made a final pass
Shattered there on the ground
Only to be found
By two red eyes
Focused on who was going to die
“My dear drone is dead
And she has a revolving spinning head”
The young boy belted out
Unleashing a loud shout
They felt the heat
Returned home, mission complete
Suddenly, a pounded knock
Rivaled the midnight ticking clock
Opening slowly the protection gate
Young boy put things straight
“You talk behind my back
I will go on an attack”
Smiling her honest grin
You know she let him win
“Oh, my young boy
With your electronic toy
I mean no harm
I want to show you something inside the barn
To this day, it is said
Both were wed
He is trapped there milking the cow
And running the plow
While she howls
At the moon
Grasping soon
Young boys' curious promiscuous days are doom
Since she will mold them and create perfect animal husbandry grooms
