POEM STARTER

Write a poem that has an uncanny mood.

Uncanny is defined as strange or mysterious, especially in an unsettling way.

Uncanny

Read if you dare


But if you do


You been warned


But right now I can gladly say


That your heart will beat faster


With every word I say


But for now,


There is an itch on your back


There is an itch when you walk


There is an itch all over you


That you can never reach


When you think


When you read


It will put you into


An uncanny mood


Bugs under your skin


The air crawling onto you


Your breathing is uneven


Nails wanted to get pulled off


Hair wanted to get pulled away


Legs feel numb


This will ruin your day


Death in your read


Do you still feel your sense


Or are you aware of your every move


Aware of all your senses around you


Aware of your every thought


You are now sitting uncomfortably


You have to now blink to cover up your tears


And you think of your worst fears


As they come to light


Don’t be afraid you won’t die today


A monster in the dark corner

Watching your very move

I am that monster

Watching you

Now I will predict

That these thoughts came into your head

All the things that I wrote

And put you into distress

And I am glad

That you felt the pain that I did

While I was writing this
