A thousand fucking pounds and now it’s pissed off
A powder keg with antlers bigger than people
On a peaceful vacation day when the park was still
Half a ton of infuriated elk was unleashed
An inhuman sound rattles the landscape
Mid-aged man moves but it spears him like a fish
And he squirms while it scrambles his guts
Attempts to scream only bring blood
Deep red vomit that makes the ground sticky
The half-ton behemoth throws him 20 feet
And a chorus of screams ensues
Tourists run like rabbits
but the murder-beast tramples
Hooves are crushing skulls and brains spill out
A passerby’s hand gets caught in the horns
And he’ll never make a fist again
Park rangers mass together and fire at will
But bullets can’t stop this raging mammal
Cars in the parking lot make it feel trapped
So it smashes its enemies
Glass and steel bend to its will
And it kicks a driver in the head
Gasoline spreads on the pavement
And a bullet ignites the flame
that makes the elk a torch
A flaming harbinger of death scalds its final victim
On a day in the park
