2000
3rd in the 'Watch Out! 2000' competition
The silence of the night
Echoes through the slithers
Of the shattered glass.
And the formidable shudder
Sends a secret to my soul.
And in the sheer covers of darkness,
Something stirs away from
Slumber.
Looking slyly, secretly around
Sniffs the air, and returns
To
Sleep.
