Boogeyman
After dusk it appears in fearful minds round
Its function is to frighten all around
Shapes and names changes all ground
Hides under the beds or in closets surround.
In the bedroom or bathroom attractive
After midnight it becomes active
Incline of amorphous shape turns eyes red with tear
Creating a power of a deepest fear.
Like a tentacles of shapeless form
Cowards are more prone to be attacked worm
Just in their mind not exactly
Frightening by its allusion aptly
Spoken by someone elders gaze
For disrespecting at tender stage
Bad habits were turned to good one
Via a boogeyman characters done.
