Scary Portrait
Square wooden portrait
facing floor with pointed pins
wall from where it was ejected dusty..
I have a trigger booby trapped
to the portrait
no one dares to touch it..
The last time i looked into it
the man scared me
to a scary scream
Ive never been frightened
to the vain
I dread more to feel the same way
Ill smash it, burn and post it
to the moon
NO! i don't even want to know his name.
He gives me the creep
those eyes that hair
i cant, I'm scared...
and ill rise wash my face
clean my eyes
and confirm with the image on my wall...
the image stares at me and scorns
'i cant see the difference
with the scary portrait image'
...someone.. someone must have...
there is no picture?
but a mirror!
