So I Wrote This
It's not serious, and I am well aware that I am a terrible poet. However, I found it entertaining to read it all melodramatically as fast as I could, and figured to put it somewhere. I learned that, it's hard to find a rhyming word for "rabbit." I also learned that it is incredibly hard to find something that rhymes with "says" without pronouncing the word with a long "a."
I don't know if changing the rhyme pattern near the end was a good idea or not.
Twigs 'n needles, breaking and snapping,
A pounding, a rattling a bone shaking smashing,
Fighting; uncertain choices clashing,
To approach, to hide, to cower or stand
I reach out to the knob, with a cold, shaking hand
A creaking a squeaking, only I am speaking
Who go there, I say over the creaking
Darkness greets me with a lover's embrace
Slowly I feel my heart cease to race
A SMASHING a LASHING an earsplitting CRASHING
A scream, the sound of creative teeth gnashing
What, I say, is this madness?!
Fast I feel, a terrifying sadness!
An animal, a thief, a murderer, a pillager?
Who, I scream, is this villager?!
I turn, taken with fright, as I see a rabbit!
A rabbit? I say, my fear waning, unlike a habit
A voice comes to my head; this is no ordinary rabbit, it says!
I scoff, I laugh I approach the rodent, then it rips off my head!
No more does it matter, for I have lost my days,
My headless body, limp, placid and truly dead!
