It

IT stares at me Through the darkness I can hear IT's heavy breathing From somewhere...over there The fog envelopes Death permeates the air I can feel IT on my skin Here...there...everywhere Blood red eyes Watching over me I can see them looming larger But run...I don't dare I close my eyes And my heart beats no more As I sense IT's teeth Enter my soul © 2011 Kevin Stock *Tribute to Stephen King*

Wow! U where not kidding... and by the way... It * is the movie that inspired my poem "It" as well.... but I was going for a tale like ...my favorite poet A.E. Poe... and yes.. I like the mix of a funny horror poem mixed with suspense. I also like and feel the suspense of your words and all it needed was them Scarry Sharp teeth. LOL.. sure loved your poem... I wrote my poem.. like 5 months ago. so I'm a late on my post as well... take care and right back at you with a new favorite poet. Linda
