I wakes up
Takes the pillow off me head
Leaps over to the window
Gasps
They's still out there!
Creepies of the Night
Growlin' an gruntin'
All descendin' on me place
They's lurkin' in the alleys
Takin' up position
In me bins
Scattered along the driveway
Behind trees an' lamposts
Ambushin' in the bushes

Wonder what they be wantin'
Me, obvious
But why me particularly?
Tries to think

Has I left a fragment of meself where it could be tasted?

Is I tasty?
But did I even do it?
Not that I remember
Maybe I's got a certain stink
Like a roast with gravy and spuds
(At least to the Creepies)

I should run a hot soapy bath
Just in case
But wouldn't ya know?
Little ones start driftin' in through the tap!

I's beset!
By Creepies!

Lock them in the bathroom
Before they can open the doors
But I hears the window latch!

Bigger ones climbin' in
It's a Creepie party in me bathroom!

I runs into the loungeroom
Sees a pair of legs
Tryin' to get out of the fireplace!
I stabs 'em with a poker
What only makes 'em angry
Kickin' out all over

Lights the fire
'Cause I don't want 'em
Comin' down me chimney
Into me house!

Needs somebody to help

But who?




Cedric the Super Celery

Cedric the Super Celery
Rips himself up by the roots
Picks his Spiky Jewellery
Selects from his Super Suits
Goes with black'n'blue
Because Super Celery sense
Detects a fuss and ado
Will decorate foes with dents
Rouses his Vegie Gang
There's trouble aplenty afoot
Earsplitting alarm rang
Is it a fire out which to put?
Sticks drawn they race
Through the neighborhood
And arrive at my place
Vowing to fight for the good
Kicking the ugly Creeps
Into liquified pulps and mash
Piling it high into heaps
With their stalks keep smash
Cedric breaks the legs
That stuck in my smokestack
As if were merely eggs
Pulls the Creep out and Crack!
He heads for bathroom
Where more Creeps run awry
Spelling certain doom
Extinguishly squish like flies
When the work is done
Cedric rounds up the troupe
Sweep up Creepie Hun
Mop up the remaining gloop

I thank them much and bid
Farewell to the Super Vegetables
Wish them luck in job to rid
The World of Creepie Undesirables

So many of your pieces make me think of Samuel Beckett novels, particularly The Unnamable.

Thankyou Firefangled :). I'll have to borrow that one. I was at the library today but looking for something else. I've made a note for when I next pass by

It seems to me that this one is a come-back, is it not? anyway, a delight to read you, your rhythm and speed are breathtaking! Great read!

Thankyou Bar22do :)

I'm not sure what you mean by come-back. Difficult to respond to that part.
