Went back to the house of my childhood, now abandoned! The rusty gate creaked open… found the once-cherished garden uncared for.. tall trees have grown taller, bushes have spread with no control, no flowers in sight - dahlias, and jinias, chrysanthemums! The swing is broken, tilting to one side! I decided to enter the house, Memory of a sweet past crippled my senses! The dusty staircase...

The enclosed porch framed a weather-beaten door. The door was slightly opened when I knocked on it. I slowly set foot inside the musty dark drawing room; little light shown through from the stained-glass window.

Beneath the staircase, In the dark, Is a monster. The owners of the house Laugh, When asked about the noises Coming from the staircase. The rattles, the moans, They say: Oh that’s just our little monster, With a wink. It is dark beneath the staircase. Eyes blink, Screams ring out, Walls, shake, The owners of the house Keep the staircase boarded up tight So the monster can never get out. They...
