Alone In The WoodsA Poem by Robert PriceIf you go down to the woods today....Alone in the wood, Is where most of us land, Where all the dead trees, Resemble skeleton like hands. The beasts that lie hidden, Waiting to crawl, You can never really be certain, When it is you're time to fall. The cracking of bones, The grinding of teeth, Aren't you a little curious, What lies underneath? The glowing of eyes, The flapping from flight, For we are all shadows, Travelling through the night. The laughter from witches, The sweeping of brooms, Beware the dead piper, Whistling monstrous tunes. The tapping from coffins, Howling from beasts, Open up the oven, To behold all the feasts. The slithering of snakes, The dribbling of blood, You can never be quite certain, When you enter the wood.
