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.

 

 

 

A tapping, a clacking, a smacking,

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!

I think it's an awesome poem.

 

But if it ripped off the narrator's head, how is the narrator still speaking the poem? :P

I'm going to roll with "magic" on this one. :P
