Through the window

a star less night,

only gloom and stillness.

 

A shadow

moves in

the hollow.

 

Across the clearing

a pair of red

flaming eyes!

 

They seem to

float through the

air.  The

fear, the horror!

 

I close my

eyes afraid to

look.  Afraid of

what I might see!

 

I open them slowly,

What is this!

I see...

I see...

MY EYES!
