In the deepest dark of night
come out the crawlies
they creep about.
wee things wee things and even weirder things
creep the floorboard cracks and fill 'em full of goo
hog the pile lay their eggs and 'posit things that glue.
long legs
short legs
hairy legs
galore.
In the deepest dark of night
come out the crawlies
creeping out
from cracks galore
from crannies and the nooks
even running away from spooks.
If the scary things are scared
lover-love run and hide.
Bedclothes beneath
you hide
shiver
terror in your eyes.
In the deepest dark of night
come out the crawlies
crawling about
under
over
through
between
they slither and slide
stroll and bide a-while
watching
multi-eyed
feelers a-quiver.
In the deepest dark of night
come out the crawlies
see them
hear them
f - e - e - l them.
In the deepest dark of night
shadows shudder
within your mind
the more you worry
the more they come
the more you worry
worry more you will....
