Selfish beam...hardly
guides one through a wide, DARK space,
this DARK, moonless night...
something stirs...'midst this
spine-tingling DARK....the wind warns:
"a thousand eyes...w a t c h..."
i m all goose bumps...cold
and scared of this patch of BLACK...
my pupils dilate,
six steps back.....to run,
should i hear evil whispers
.........o'er hungry voices?

"whsh, whsh, whsh......kitties?"
green, grey eyes rush...one limps, yet,
all share the fish......."meow..."
