How I Got chased by a Broken, red, dark, creepy soulless ghost



A soulless creature swift by
with a gruesome red eye.

With a hairy and hollow body,
Like on discord a bossy  moddy

Eating a disc chokey
With his mouth all sloppy

It has hundreds of carbon copies
Who follows us till the lobbies

It chased me through the playground
It chased me through the rivers
It made me get all the shivers

It's deep, shrill voice gave me the freak
Like Eris from ancient Greek.


Everyday at dusk the soulless creature awakens
With the loud eery shake of the crackens

Everyday at dawn the creature
Screams out loud like a preacher

I fell and trip and bump my head
Without seeing what was ahead

I shouted and screamed and groaned in fear
As I freakishly let out a tear.

The loud creature stood up on me
Trying to swallow and eat me

All of a sudden….

I heard a loud irritating noise
It was my mothers fierce voice

All the creatures were disappearing
The only thing I saw was my mother appearing.

She shouted "get up Johnny!!!"
But I forgot to set my alarm, mommy!!

I was late for school, it was already 8.30
I missed my morning tea!
