tucked in, teeth brushed, ready for bed
let my hair down from atop my big head
my book I grasped and started to read
and that is when I saw what I'd seen
Our eyes locked in the corner of the room
My heart kicked, like a babe in the womb
I jumped on my bed, now fully aroused
because i just saw a big fucking mouse
damn that rodent to hell, all comfort aside
i stay on my guard, outstretch my eyes
Loud noises and motions to stir the beast
but the tailed-leprachaun's antics won't cease
I hop atop my large bed and try to resume
my reading 'fore bed, but now I'm consumed
with thoughts of a monster slipped into my mouth
8 spiders in our sleep - just Snapple caps now!
I shut of the light and attempt at a dream
but mind's consumed, or so it would seem
by intruders who scurry and dart out of sight
shut up, conscience - it won't be a good night.
