I am going to give out little digestible treats called "Monster Haiku". Today's selection is a lycanthropic delight entitled Werewolf.

Beware the full moon
From whence sprang hair, claws, and fangs
A howl from behind

It moved too quickly
Your shot goes wild through the air
Teeth tear through your flesh

Silver club beats down
It saves you from the monster
Rescued by your friend

A month passes by
A rough recovery road
Full moon makes you snarl
