I am the dark thing under the bed — 
your bogeyman, lint-covered and alone,
rasping and moaning I've yet to be fed.
I am the dark thing under the bed
waiting to seize feet leaping in dread
away from dirt angels robbed of gravestone.
I am the dark thing under the bed —
your bogeyman, lint-covered and alone.
