Hourglass

Spiders live in the walls of a creaky old shack
waiting for the one who will soon come back
She knows that the spiders are very aware and a bite from the black ones with red in their back
leads only to despair

Despair is something she does not lack
as a witch with no victims wrapped up in a sack
No spells can she cast on a damsel so fair
Fair victims are The things that she should not lack
as she returns to her dark dark,
spidery lair

When midnight has finally crept its way back
and wind blows the witch's small creaky shack
A damsel comes knocking with windblown blonde hair - hair so blonde
and very fair

The witch with a start grabs her big sack
and stifles her voice that sounds like a cack
and opens her door just a crack
to see a girl so fair

"I took a wrong turn, can't find my way back; will you let me enter your small black shack,
so that I may be sheltered
from the midnight air?"

It's then the fair damsel enters the shack
and sees it's The Witch holding a sack
who's other hand moving with artistic flair
draws her yet forward
into the lair.

But a fearful shiver crept up her back and made the witch drop the big sack that was meant for the girl so fair
"A witch should not fear in her own creaky shack, but you, my dear, leave - do not come back! Forsake my dark
spidery lair!"

"Oh shut it, you shriveled old hack who long ago turned your bent back cause you simply just didn't care.
My dad, he warned you and called you a 'wack' who forever filled her big sack with gains that were gotten unfair".

"And now that he rules and you've been sent to the back and dwell in your old rickety shack with an empty sack and a cupboard that's bare,
I've come to haunt you cause there's no turning back, your spiders have caught you
you're stuck in your trap...

They've been watching, those that are black with red on their back...

fair is fair".
