The Bathroom

Leaping past…….closet door……. attic door…
Breathy whispers slip through,
cracked paneled exhales,
                                        inaudible whispers come.
…..hovering…………….
Smiling teeth- nash- down
Stretching hallway styles,
black gaps, fingers tap
to the depths of
cellar door
and abyss.
Linoleum… Cut\Sash/ Slash>>>to the feet in a skitter!
The 7 1/2 watt bulb,
making the
                     frightening
                            unseen,
More visible
to the child’s
          naked
            eye.
