The creature
#WritcoPoemChallenge
Into the flames rising out of a setting sun,
I draw in a deep breath before I run... I turn around and there it is. A tall thin creature with long claws. with a growl the creature turns toward me and runs coming my direction. I freeze. I don't know what else to do. The creature is now right in front of me. Holding up the lamp in my hand I say "w-who are you and what do you want?!" The creature replied "I am your husband Jerry." Suddenly Jazibel felt stupid. She didn't like that the tall creepy thin weirdo was her husband. Why would her husband be out here? He hates the woods. "I was seeing what you were doing because I couldn't sleep. I wanted to check on you and make sure everything was alright." Said Jerry, her husband. Jazibel tried to say something but when she opened her mouth, nothing came out. Jerry looks at her in confusion. " Did I scare you or...?" "YES JERRY YOU SCARED ME! COULDNT YOU TELL THAT I WAS RUNNING FOR MY LIFE!!?"
