I was strolling down the street when I saw a man in front of me,

He tilted his head to look at something which was quite unsightly,

I trained my eyes to look straight ahead,

but I suddenly glanced down and saw something that filled me with dread,

I screamed and ran and didn’t stop until I reached my bed,

I told my parents what I saw and they said it was all in my head,

I will never forget that ghastly thing,

Just the thought of it feels like a sting.
