The Claw Of Doom

The Claw Of Doom

Watch out for the claw of doom
It could be hiding in your room
It drips with blood and never sleeps
In every silent shadow creeps

The game is on with every day
The claw of doom still wants to play
It's grinning from its hellish pit
You really shouldn't mess with it

So some will run and some ask why
Whilst some will every fear defy
They'll take it on with open arms
Despite its total lack of charms

Remember, then, in peaceful days
That fear can sometimes guide our ways
Although we need to beat the gloom
Don't ever approach the claw of doom

Simon!  Enjoyed this write.  The claw of doom reminds me of what I thought was under my bed as a child. I alway used to get out at the foot of the bed thinking that it could only pull me under from the sides!  Wonderful write!
