The New Jersey Devil Poem

More about The New Jersey Devil Poem

In the murky marshes of New Jersey's night,
Lies a legend that fills all with fright.
A creature with wings and eyes aglow,
The New Jersey Devil, feared by all below.
Its wingspan stretches wide and wide,
Its red eyes gleam with an eerie pride.
With a screech that pierces the dark,
It leaves its mark, a chilling spark.
Legends tell of its fearsome form,
Half-bat, half-beast, in a fearsome swarm.
Its midnight flights, so swift and bold,
Leave witnesses with stories untold.
From Pine Barrens to Jersey shore,
The Devil's myth grows more and more.
Its origins shrouded in mystery,
A cryptid of New Jersey's history.
So if you roam the Garden State,
Beware the Devil's sinister fate.
For in the shadows it may lurk,
A legend that continues to work.
