FRANKENSTEIN

 

In the early eighteenth century

A failed writer Robert Walton

Set out on an expedition journey

To the end of the North Pole

In hopes of expanding scientific research

Smashing against the volatile snowy

Path came cruising a sled

Driven by a gigantic figure

Covered under its snowy sludge

The crew rescued a frozen emanciated man

Named Victor Frankenstein

A scientist

In pursuit of his mad creation

A behemoth beast he named after him

Frankenstein

A secret he divulged after recovering

From his frigid exertions

And saw in Robert the same obsession

That destroyed him

As he further narrated his overwhelming

Story of life’s miseries

As a warning in advance

The story of his monster invention

FRANKENSTEIN

 

Belonging to a wealthy Genevan family

Victor and his younger brothers

Ernest and William

Sons of Alphonso Frankenstein

And the former Caroline Beaufort

From a very young age Victor

Fascinated and obsessed by theories

Of alchemists

Though when older dawned upon him

The theories to be rather outdated

At the age of five Victor’s parents

Adopted Elizabeth Lavenza

An orphaned daughter of an expropriated Italian nobleman

Whom later Victor married

Victor’s parents took in another child

Justine Moritz who became William’s nanny

 

Weeks before Victor left for the university

After his mother unfortunately died by scarlet fever

Thence Victor to forget buried himself

In experiments to deal with the grief

As time lapsed Victor excelled in Chemistry

And other sciences

Soon developed a secret technique to impart

Life to non-living matter

He soon undertook to invent

The creation of a humanoid

That from unforeseen conditions

He resolved to extricate parts and pieces

From spare corpses late at night

In churchyard cemetery digging up tombs

With the help of Igor his escaped juvenile assistant clown

Victor rescued Igor along with Igor’s pretty acrobat Lorelei

Hunchback, deformed, freak sidekick Igor

Certainly led a life ‘No bed of roses’

Coming up the hard and bitter path

Entertaining through smiles and tear paint laughs

A crowd of rowdy spectators

A thankless job moving from tents and caravan trailers

In appalling circumstances of a travelling circus

Abused and mistreated by those in power

Pulling them like marionettes on a string

Now the circus juvenile clown along with his pretty acrobat Lorelei

Lived in the scientist Victor’s lair

 

The circus clown learning about the scientists

Great passion for bringing to life dead matter

Was obliged to do him a favour

In return Victor promised Igor

To remove his hunchback deformity

So that he could live like a normal human

With his devoted pretty acrobat

Lured by his masters promise and influence

Igor helped him dig graves and tombs

To fetch him bones and body parts

To sew and stitch

At first Victor found great difficulty building from scratch

Replacing minute and bigger parts of the human body

With help of Igor his hunchback assistant

Things went on smoothly and

The final finale of his gadgets and laboratory machines

Putting forth assembled pieces into a gargantuan creature

Testing it definitely worked wonders

It jerked with spasms and revolting seizures like epilepsy

Till his miracle model was ready for the final jolt

Of the thousand circuit volt current

To redeem from dead and raise up Frankenstein

A heartless giant Frankenstein with a heart

But without a heart

His superior Vena Cava embodied to be

The Perfect Humanoid Monster

Of all creations

As the biggest blossoming vein

Brought oxygen and poor blood

From upper body to the heart

He was replete his imagination

Turned to reality

 

Whilst before the final electric jolt

To bring alive the dreaded Monster

Victor extracted pus from Igor’s hunch

And corrected the spinal vertebrae

So he could stand on his two feet

Just like a normal human and no freak

Thanking his master Igor

Proceeded forth a new lease of life

Fulfilling the promise made

Victor to Igor and Igor to Victor

Made it possible for Igor to marry Lorelei

Whilst success for Victor’s scientific experiment

Victor tearfully bade him goodbye

And good luck eagerly anticipating the same

For the outcome of Frankenstein by the timely assistance

From the rescued juvenile clown

Giving it the final bolt

Of a thousand electric circuits

In the bed of the laboratory vestibule

Through veins as big as jugular

Passing in humanoid or his monster’s

Repelling body

At last the monster jolted to life

 

The so called fantasy horrific creature

Was immense, a giant about eight feet

‘T spanned to measure almost the sky

And proportionally large and burlesque shoulders

That matched his profanity of green horrid

Watery yellowed typhoid eyes

So hideous was his appalling appearance of light mustard yellow

Patchy skin

Barely concealing the blood vessels and muscles underneath

And two bones stuck out his cerebrum

Like a huge hammerhead fish shark

Filled with shaggy fibres replicating hair of a dead

Warrior skeleton

Even scared Victor beyond consciousness

 A strange tingling of spine

His soul that bared his stained conscience

As he saw the beast wake up as if from purgatory

On the operating table a corpse piece by piece

He dissected from human souls

Restoring a mammoth gargantuan jigsaw framework

Little realizing what destruction would cause

The immense boulder of such capable shoulders

As the monster shrieked birth pangs of fresh creation

That spurred him from a deathbed

Now live and waking up

Walked towards his master Victor

Repeating his name

“Master! Master!” to obey

 

However without waiting to hear him utter

Another word before he saw

His very eyes his masterful creation steal a breath

Or a brush with looming death

Victor the mad scientist

Fled for his life

Repulsed by the inhumane monstrosity

Of his fantasy creation

However after a few days when fear

Settled down Victor decided to return

Back to his laboratory

But the unfortunate Monster Frankenstein

Had vanished from naked sights

Victor taking ill from such a bizarre experience

As this he nursed back to health

By his obliging childhood friend Henry Clerval

Slowly but surely after he recouped

Nearly after four months of jitters and spine curdling

Nightmares

He learnt from his father sad news of the murder

Of his dear brother William

However Justine Moritz, William’s nanny

 Convicted of the crime she didn’t commit

When alas! Victor convinced that

His very own creation was responsible for heinous act

None would ever believe

If he tried clearing Justine’s name

For hence had created the miserable beast

That led to Justine being hanged

 

Ravaged by grief and guilt beyond measure

Victor retreated back to the mountains

In search of the hideous giant Frakenstein

When finally confronted by the monster

The monster Frankenstein recounted

The misery and hate

He faced because of his foreboding

Appearance that led him to loathe and fear all humans

On one account whilst he lived in an

Abandoned shelter connected to a little cottage

He grew fond of the poor family

Secretly did menial tasks

Like collecting debris and firewood

Clearing snow away from their paths

Holding them dear without grudges

In his monster hammer head like a fish shark 

Two bones protruding each skull sides

Living for so much time closeby

He learnt to speak by listening to them

Taught himself to read

Discovering a lost satchel of books

In the woods

 

Alas! One day upon seeing his hideous reflection

In a pool

He was horrified so much so

As it horrified normal humans

As he learnt of the family’s plight

He grew increasingly attached to them

Eventually approached them

Hoping to become their good friend

Entering only when the blind father was present

However upon return of the rest

All turned frightened

Frankenstein was attacked by the blind man’s son

Fleeing from the house

Frankenstein gave up hopes of ever being accepted

By humans

Even the fact that his creator had disowned

And abandoned him

Now he faced what grim reality wished

To meet his unfortunate master

Of the unfortunate creature he created

With the hope his master would surely help him

As one day he rescued a child from drowning

But her father believing that the creature

Intended to harm them

Shot him in the shoulder

Therefore he swore an oath

Revenge against all humans

If his master did not prepare

Him another life and wife

Turning in her grave!

Bride of Frankenstein

 

He promised his master to be of full support

To grant the Superior Vena Cava

To a female dead corpse

With all trust he lighted his

Hammer head brains like a fish shark in a restless monster soul

To be his faithful assistant

To fetch him pieces and parts

Of female corpses

To build piece by piece

His haunted breathtaking bride

Promising his master he would

Vanish with her forever once he

Produced such a heinous invention

Far away into the South American Wilderness

Alas! Should his master refuse such an obligation

He would forget being such a obedient beast

If his strange request met with defiance

He threatened to kill Victor’s

Friends and loved ones

And would not stop hence

Until he was completely ruined

Promised to avenge with revenge

As he would watch over his masters progress

Day by day

 

The master with Frankenstein’s help

Assimilated different body parts and pieces

He found late at night from the forsook churchyard

Cemetery and combined them from the tomb

Like spares once again forming its jigsaw puzzle

Into a complete woman

Just the right bride of Frankenstein

Frankenstein thrilled beyond measure

His heartless beats in his body could take

Without a real heart but his Superior Vena Cava

Brought about a ticking of one invented lifeless corpse

By the fated femme fatale female

Who in fact was nonetheless than his master’s

Dear wife Elizabeth’s grave

A fatal error of judgement the master had made

That he commanded slave monster to fetch and obey

 

This was what the beast contemplated

As his master Victor zealously worked

Day and night

And he fetched body parts and bones

To compile his wretched wife

The beautiful Bride of Frankenstein

But the master wished to create

A bride from the dead corpse of his wife

Who died in her sleep

Just a week before Halloween

Now it was time to wake her up

From her sombre sleep

And digging up Elizabeth’s deep grave

Collecting bits and pieces

From dead body parts

He assembled Elizabeth’s head onto his brother’s

Nanny’s body that seemed perfectly intact

Justine Moritz 

The right candidate for his work of splendour

To bring alive Victor's deity slave

 Frankenstein would obey Master

So would she

Things would turn out differently

When his slave monster would respect his command

What Victor really intended

To bring back from dead

And make undead the holy

Union betwixt his wife and him

 

The sacrilegious moment his task was finished

And the Superior Vena Cava female

Awoke with a beating heart

In a heartless body

He admired his master’s behemoth task accomplished

Together with his fated Demonic Bride

Hand in hand as he promised his good master

He would return to the cavity of an unknown forest

Into such a tender hearted soul

Frankenstein thought his soul union would transform him

When he married solemnly in the forest

His master as his priest

The beautiful Bride of Frankenstein

However beyond all strange Forebodings

Victor’s dead wife turned alive

Mending and bending into its lifeless corpse

Organs, body pieces and parts

Into his strange laboratory machines and vestibule chambers

Whilst Victor the master thought to himself the future bride to be

The perfect companion for the inventor

Without his monster friend

 

Upon realising what his master intended to do

It back fired

The beautiful creation

Was only fit to be the dream of damned Frankenstein

His creation

And he screamed like a hooligan gone gaga

At the beauty of such perfection

“Obey me!” Said the master to the

Bride he created enchanted beyond breath and stupor

Of all appalling inventions he created once again

Come true to life-size dream of both beast and master

The Future Demure Bride

 However the beast enraged at the master’s command

When it revealed his true intentions

Revolted his masters ingenious art

That was meant all for him

And challenged with monstrosity

To kill him before he took her in his

Arms and fled into the dark

Abysmal cavity of wilderness

Eloping with his bejewelled diamond

 

The master heartbroken

Before he called his bride

“OBEY ME!”

Elizabeth now was stolen

By Frankenstein his fearful monster

Weeping inconsolably

The fact that the second creature

Might lead to a breeding of a brood

That could plague mankind was always

On Victor’s mind

He decided to set out finding

His abominable creations

Hoping that they obey

And he be reunited with

His Bride without a heart

With the heartless Beast

Fearing for his life because of mortal sin

He committed escaped clutches of horrible populace

Revolted by the strange secret

His talent of bringing dead alive beyond their tombs and in graves

Not sparing even his forsook wife

Armed with fire torches, guns, sword and bayonets

Came marching to Victor the scientist’s house

Alas! Much bereaved by the stealing of his doomed wife

And the fearful fury to be unleashed by the angry mob

Victor escaped far away on one of his journeys

 In his sail boats

The endless surf beyond the holy hamlet

Hoping they not see that in fact

Besotted by the creation of the demon Bride

He frantically set out in search of Frankenstein

Not caring if he lived or be doomed

All was rest to be explained right from the beginning

When Robert Falcon and his crew

Found him on his sledge

That snowy day

Whilst on a raft into the icy

Waters did the creature build one so splendid

Made of tree logs, ropes and roots

Honey mooning Elizabeth

The Bride of Frankenstein

A warning to all those who loved

Experimenting

Victor sighing vehemently full of sorrowful passion

“As all humans cannot deny

A heart that heartless

Without a heart

Yet should be

Groomed FRANKENSTEIN!

In a heartless, thankless world

He possessed one of ingenuity!”
