Beneath The House by Abby O.








Beneath the house



Lies a scary dark man



Still, Unmoving



Dead,



Man



But at night



When I approach



The house



The piercing screams



Heard everywhere



Fill my ears



When I come



Closer



To the dead man



His still



Unmoving body



Leaps to my feet



Grasping my ankle



BAM



On the ground



SLAM



Headfirst



The man



Growls



Scrapes



My Leg



YELP



I cry



But the man



Seems



Peaceful



Getting



Closer



To my heart



The nails



SINKING



Deep



In the organ



Holes



Appearing



Blood



Spilling



Fate



Ending



Body



SLAM



On the



Hard



Rough,



Sidewalk



As the man



Crawls



Back



Beneath



The house
