Crazy Eye

Bulging eye twitching wildly
circling round your corner
mucus crowding the crevices
tear duct covered in dried jelly
colored greenish orange
drips, drip, drip

Then it spots you
pointing you out of the overgrown crowds
you hesitate .....
staring two eyes on one....
you then,
twitch yourself
turning trip-
-ping.


Rapidly running racehorse speeds
covering cross country distances
pawing for a chance at breath
suddenly you stop
eerie breezes, fog setting
sighing in relief
HHHHHHHHEEEEEEEIIIIIIEEEEE!!!! Hheeeeeehhhh!
Cackles the
crazy cross-eyed beast from behind......

I love the way you concisely set the scene with, "covering cross country distances
pawing for a chance at breath
suddenly you stop
eerie breezes, fog setting..."

You have an interesting scary but whimsical tone which reminds me of that fingernail, lip, witch story. Do you know that one?
