Well. I have something a little different from your doom and gloom poems
Untitled
Fearfully
I sneeze
As dust goes up and tickles my nose
Quietly
I creep
And snake carefully around the rusty coils
Carefully
I grope
In the dark as heavy curtains seal away the light
Finally
I've done it!
Completely submerged, ready to hunt for my prey
Horrified
I recoil
As something slimy touches my hand
With interest
I observe
As my littlest finger starts to glow green
Just in time
I find
My homework, a little crumpled, under my bed.

Rip away.
