Hideaway Home

I spot the tunnel tis is not bright alas a runnel it's in my sight fear of runners in the park leery of gunners after dark Mobsters Ball it is a panic the bathroom stall a hustler manic now I'll close in nowhere to hide a rat's den no tears have dried something disguised what can that be yellow eyes staring at me I can't afford to be frenzied there is a board I'll ward off the envied now I will run back to my dome monster I did stun my hideaway home

I would say that sometimes it feels good to run back to our comfort zone; out there things are not always what they seem! ~ Regards // paul

A spooky feel to this just as you intended, Angela.

Thank you, Silent One. When I originally started out I had something a little different in mind but I liked the way it came out :)

I like how the short lines create a staccato beat to the feel, dark and mysterious!
