My Worst Nightmare

I was sitting in my chair
As the rain was pouring down
I heard a creepy breath
And then I saw this evil clown

He had big black eyes
And a very scary grin
I could tell just from the look of him
That he was full of sin

I tried to scream and run
But something was stopping me
And to make matters worse
I REALLY had to pee

He then moved his hands
In one there was a knife
I thought that this was it
All over was my life

But then my eyes flew open
It was just as I had hoped
A scary dream is all it was
But my pants were thoroughly soaked!
