Two into One.

Goldfinch60

I walk down the street

On these fine days,

A smile on my face,

Greeting all,

with joy and happiness.

 

I creep down the street

In the dark of night,

A sinister look on my face,

Hiding from all,

Getting ready to pounce.

 

Into work I go,

Where all greet me

With fun, happiness,

And dare I say, love,

For my helpful, happy ways.

 

I slink down the alleys,

Keeping to the dark,

Keeping to the shadows,

Looking for a victim,

To satisfy my blood lusting ways.

 

The day goes on,

The work gets done,

With joyous banter

Pervading the room,

A life of fun and companionship.

 

There he is!

My victim!

I pounce!

Drag him to my den!

Destroy his precious life!

 

Looking around the office

I see James is not there,

Where is he I ask?

Oh he was found last night,

With his throat ripped out.

    Did you have a bad hair day?! Or you heard me sing, and it drove you to that?! lol.

  • lanaevans

    Don't act like you didn't know what happened to eddy.

  • FredPeyer

    I didn't think you had it in you Goldfinch! Jekyll and Hyde! Man, I love your poem. Sorry Cat, but this little bird here put Eddy to shame!

    • Goldfinch60

      Thank you Fred. It does not happen often but be careful if you are walking out at night.

    • Frank Prem

      Put those things away GF. Fangs for the poem, though.

      • Goldfinch60

        Cheers Fred, don't worry I will not be round your way tonight.

      • Fay Slimm.

        A scary end to my morning read Goldie - shall have to watch out for those dark alley-walks from tonight.

        • Goldfinch60

          Thank you Fay. You have no worries, I will not be out for a few months now, back to more civilised writing.

        • dusk arising

          Fangs very much for that. It gave me a thirst. Very enjoyable reading.

            Don't drink too deeply da.

            Thank you very much for commenting.

            I see you are in touch with the dark side we all possess and explore from lifetime to lifetime. A sign of a well-balanced soul, Goldie. Well expressed!

            • Goldfinch60

              We all have a dark side but mine shows itself extremely infrequently.
              Thanks Louis, much appreciated.

            • myself and me

              It seems you are all ready to celebrate Halloween. Goose bump all over me.
              Chilly writing.

              • Goldfinch60

                Thank you m and m, it will be warmer tomorrow.

                • myself and me

                  Thank you for the forecast.

                  Good fun mr. Hyde ... seems good to do something different

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Very true WL, thank you for your comment, much appreciated.

                    You were dripping blood from your pen. First time I read something like this from you. I think Eddy is spilling some blood on all of us. Now we have cute blood inspiration. Enjoyed very much reading.
