Amy Hao Poet Free verse

Coming Closer

Its coming closer…and closer…
I’m frozen 
My legs are like jelly.
Its legs – long legs
8 of them 
Black, thick, and hairy.
Beady little eyes
Tiny, sharp fangs 
Vemenous
And ever-approaching.
Panic, as it glares at me with conviction.
I have the urge to squash it. 
Its coming closer…and closer….
BAM. 
Extermination.

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed."
