The Watcher, The Crawler, The Killer


The spider watches as they sleep
The children dream their peaceful dreams
The spider crawls in creepish steps
With plans to cause some panicked screams

And down the wall the spider comes
Onto their bed and satin sheets
So slowly does he sneak his way
Toward his goal of kiddie sweets

And now the spiders fangs prepare
To sink into one dreamers arm
The poison drips from off the tips
In hope of doing deadly harm

As skin gives way to sharpened fang
The night is pierced with screams and death
The spider laughs behind the bed
As dreamer takes his final breath

X_X, I have goosebumples running up and down my arms! Ever since my sleeping bag was filled with spiders (birthday presents from my fellow 12 year old girl guides) ~ I have had a phobia about spiders. I know it should be mind over matter ~ but to my mind, that doesn't matter!

Very vivid writing! ~ too vivid, for my liking! lol

HH hugs,
EA
