The Bloigs

[MystyrMystyry]

It was the night
the traffic lights
followed me home


Jumped down the
chimney because
my key didn't fit


And then the storm
tiny styrofoam balls
covered my street


There was static
everywhere like
a broken old TV


The Bloigs climbed
out from the drains
to scare everyone


Lurking on corners
proffering poison
to the passersby


With those slimy eyes
scaly blue tentacles
and droopy antennas


Mrs Peep-Hole whom
no-one had ever seen
went and told them off


One gobbled her up
as the rest burbled
and belly-gurgled


The snowsweepers
arrived to scoop up
the little white pellets


Scooped the Bloigs
up into the shovels
also just in time


The Bloigs haven't
bothered us again
but the traffic lights

keep causing a mess

lol at first i thought it was about the 'burgs', but spelled as the 'boigs'. this was very imaginative, and i liked it when they laughed.

Very droll, in the true sense of the word. I really like the ending in particular.

Another one to frighten the kiddies at bedtime!
