Headhaunter
Kaiju
Lost here without any weapon, the fog cleared in seconds
Presenting the all feared colossus of legend and folklore
That most thought was bogus
Approaching the public eye's focal point
Photos show all the valleys and peaks of the titanic features
That I can't believe, even though I stand in its company
Cursed with a jaw that won't close
Coupled with two legs buckling
It just emerged from the ocean, covered in
Seaweed and capsized boats
It's lumbering up on to shore with a great maw that roars
With the force that could take your bewildered face off
See fissures on its teeth that secrete lava
We're all gone, just log it and jot down
All of the things that make it too strong to kill
As it toys with the buildings it stomps at will
They just deployed the payloads
Dropping their miniature mega-tonne bombs
Halos form on the exo-skeleton
But they're barely making dents with the blows that they throw

The sun starts burning brightly
The prelude to some untimely end
The fog recedes entirely
Streets engulfed in a fiery breath

F16's start to scream as they fly by
Oil leaks out of a claw gouged tanker in high tide
Wide eyed anger and panic with 'end is nigh' signs
Bright ideas run finite, you could surmise the event with a whimper
A battle wherein there lies one victor
It's simple, we brought this upon ourselves
The fog that held that monster that's swatting a helicopter
Is the same damn fog that we thought concealed
All our wrong doings and all evil
Each inhumane action we watched unveil
Each innocent creature that we shot and killed
Every little bit of malice that we got instilled
I walk through the soft city's hard entrails
In a shadow that stretches right off the scales
It reared its ugly head with a breath
That blew the red Horseman of Death shaped clouds asunder
With a blue shockwave too loud for the space above it
It moved in a circle and turned to face me
I viewed upwards as my innards were whirling to gravy
Nowhere to escape it, two giant bonfires
And a mountain range of teeth in a face that seems too happy to take me
Claws ripped through storefronts, tore trucks in half
Devoured planes, no airport intact
Craters created on every step's impact
Sky changed to grey so fast, snapped a synapse
But no life montage chose to flash before my eyes
It's no surprise as the mouth of oblivion opened wide
I just felt the heat, in a golden light
