Escape
I had the creeps, the jitters, too.
Ill-omened gray replaced the blue.
Wild wind breathed hard my terror grew.
I must escape! I must escape!
The house was empty, but for me,
The windows scraped by claws of tree.
The monster’s growl dared me to flee.
I must escape! I must escape!
With pounding heart and knees too weak
And goose bumped skin, and feeling bleak,
I called my cousin ‘cross the creek.
“I must escape! I must escape!”
What else was I supposed to do?
She braved the rain, the lightning, too.
In Gremlin car she made it through.
I did escape, I did escape.
