1005
\nBy his grotesque appendage<\/p>\n

I dreamed of Cthulhu last night
\nThe nightmare caused me such a fright
\nWhile sailing on the clear blue sea
\nHis tentacles reached out to me
\nCaught between terror and panic
\nHis pulpy head was gigantic
\nPart dragon and part crustacean
\nI cowered with trepidation
\nThe horror would not go away
\nHe ensnared me to my dismay
\nHe dragged me screaming for a mile
\nBack to his Cyclopean isle
\nI struggled ‘gainst his slimy hands
\nAnd dwelled not on his ghastly plans
\nDoomed by this unholy kraken
\nI hoped I would soon awaken
\nRemarkably a new day dawned
\nMy eyes opened and then I yawned
\nIt’s over now, I’ll be all right
\nI dreamed of Cthulhu last night<\/p>\n
