I sit on the couch watching this Twilight Zone movie at midnight as the bell chimed quietness echoed all around. I was in this huge house Windows were all sealed tight I was invited for the night everything was hidden out of sight seemed quite contrite. The kids were fast asleep for I was they're babysitter for which they seeked for quite sometime you can imagine if you took a look inside. The screeches from the chandaliers the staircase with these pictures of past ancestors seemed to stare right through you. I must be crazy of course sitting here on the couch watching twilight zone chilled to the bone, munching on my chips to disguise the noise coming from upstairs. I heard cries from the top floor Though I did not want to go I was beckoned for the sake of the two children I was watching. So quietly I walked up the stairs My whole body shaking and barely able to contain my shivers. I arrived at floor four which was the top where the children were fast asleep walked in the pitch darkness seemed to dress me from head to toe then I heard a door screech open and out came this thing, this bright red eyed creature jumping towards my throat It grapped on and ran it's nails down my throat, still peacefully the kids slept and I was mangled to and fro my screams would not come my lips seem to be numb I screamed, screamed to the top of my lungs help, help me please, help. On and on, This thing was shaking me, shaking me Then I heard someone say wake up wake up. Thank God I had only fallen asleep during the twilight zone. Of Course I took on the characters plight.

Loved that Twilight Zone. loved the re-visit through your poem. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
