I see the Huggermugger wispy grey against the wall I don’t like the looks of him I don’t like him at all He seeks out the darkness in my mind when I’m asleep He reads all my imaginings there’s not a secret I can keep! He appears here at dusk when the light begins to fade I see him first as shadow standing behind the window shade He lurks in the background taunting me with his leer The Huggermugger relishes my every fright and fear I pull the covers up at night to hide my face and head I know the Huggermugger waits hoping I’ll soon be dead Entering my body as I sleep he searches my soul for inspiration sucking words from me then with devilish dedication The Huggermugger steals away when sunlight wakes the day but he’ll be back when sunlight fails much to my dismay |

Today my boss asked me if I knew what a huggermugger was - I had to get out a dictionary for the answer. This was the result of that bit of inspiration!  Thanks for reading! |
