Out of a nightmare

 A horrid monster crawls out of the fog,
with swollen face, and dead wires for its hair,

unleashing rage, not the expected fear.
It rises from a noisome, evil, bog

towards its end by arrow, sword, and spear.
A horrid monster crawls out of the fog,
it rises from a noisome, evil, bog:
