Today's word is "poltergeist" ... POHL-ter-gahyst ... A ghost or spirit supposed to manifest its presence by notices, knockings, etc. (Dictionary.com)
Creep
It's dark. It's cold. It's spooky.
Who's that knock, knock, knocking at my door?
Don't look out the window,
Hide with me here on the floor.
Maybe it will go away,
If it doesn't hear me breathing,
But I can see it's form I think,
Up there on the ceiling!
Oh no ... That's just your shadow,
Like you, it looks the same,
And that creepy sound I heard,
Was a branch upon the pane.
So that poltergeist I thought I felt,
Was plainly imaginary,
Thought up from within my head,
Now, of myself I'll be more wary!
