Look behind you,
who's there?
I thought I heard a voice,
and turned around to see no one there.
Calling my name.....
or was it?
lemme turn again.....nope.
I turn and start walking again.
I look up into the sky.
The moon shines brightly,
stars cover the sky.
I look around me,
just for good measure,
to find myself alone,
and yet as soon as I do,
I hear a whisper calling my name.
I jump, look frantically around,
for there's no one there,
No one in the dark alleys besides the cats in the trash cans.
Yeah, that's probably it.
This eerie warm warm wind's just getting to me.....I should get home soon.
And the moon...don't forget the full moon and stories behind it.....
So I keep walking again,
and turn around a corner, which is a shortcut to my home.
And there I see a shadow too big to be a human race across the street.
Wait? how do I know it's a shadow? it's a damn dark night, even for the dull feverish yellow street-lights....
I shudder, and quicken up my pace, thinking to myself.
Did it have red eyes?
no,
but I thought it did.....
did you see it's shape? I thought I saw it's claws....
I shake my head - not possible. No mountains around.
So? that doesn't mean anything - it DID have a tail....
I shake my head again. It STILL doesn't mean anything.
By this time, I've reached my home.
I find the door knob broken.
My pulse quickens,
I perspire.
I open the door, I walk in.
Everything's broken and in chaos,
disorder.
I walk into the bedroom.
MY wife lays on the bed,
her throat torn out,
her night gown ripped,
Her bloody breast gleaming in the moonlight.
Suddenly,
My screams are muffled by a furry hand across my mouth.
A pain in the neck,
and all goes blank...
