Duane Crichlow Poet Haiku

Boo!

On Saturday night,
I was watching a movie
Till I fell asleep.

All of a sudden,
At around twelve forty-five,
I heard a loud thump.

"Who is that?" I asked.
I waited for a response,
But there was nothing.

So I asked again,
"Who's there? Quit fooling around
And show yourself now!"

There's still no answer.
"This is SO not happening,"
I said to myself.

I grabbed my flashlight
And my lucky baseball bat
To investigate.

The entire house
Was checked from top to bottom:
I even went outside.

Then I said, "Hello?
Is anybody out here?
Anyone at all?"

But again, nothing.
It's only a distraction
To keep me awake.

I went back inside,
Washed my hands, and proceeded
Back to my bedroom.

When I locked my door--
"BOO!" My girlfriend just scared me!
It's Spooky Season.
