Never open the door .

Never open the door .

Time froze
Between the hours
two and four
She awoke
In fright
A tap At the door
Opened it in a flash
He wielded
A powerful lash
Again
One deep slash
Her gizzards On the floor
Time frozen now
Forevermore

Never open the door
Between the hours
Two and four.
