Fantasy Illusions

 

 

.

Sometimes things just aren’t what they may seem.
And you wonder if you are really just having a dream.
I recall one time when I was writing a blog late at night.
I saw a fantasy illusion that did give me a big fright.

Fantasy Illusions

 

 

.

I was sitting in my easy chair about 4 AM in low light,
Just writing away because I could not sleep that night.
I was writing a blog about old Big Foot so very hairy,
About a time as a Boy Scout when Big Foot was scary.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I was going good writing that blog as fast as I could,
With poem words flowing out just like they should.
Suddenly, the power went off and my light went out.
My iPad light was all that was left in the room, no doubt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

There was not much I could do and I had a full charge,
So I just kept on blog writing in bold letters so large.
I was about half done and I heard a loud noise outside.
Which startled me, raising hair on my neck’s backside.

What the Heck was that?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I laid down my iPad and headed to the living room,
I couldn’t find a flash light as it was black as a tomb.
So I headed out that backdoor on a pitch black night.
Carefully feeling my way to the back gate with no light.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I remembered I had a small light on my own iPhone,
As I stood there on that back sidewalk so all alone.
So I flipped on that small phone light and I could see,
A big pair of bright glowing eyes looking right at me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

As I focused on that area, old Big Foot I could see.
Crouching in a bush in the corner looking back at me.
I could see his big hairy head, and long hairy arms,
This frightened me bad as I knew he might do me harm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

So I started backing up slowly about to crap my underwear,
When the eyes moved towards me giving me a big scare.
I started to turn and run when a big black dog passed me,
Heading on out that back gate just as fast as could be.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I was so relieved as I stood there breathing so fast,
As I was sure old Big Foot was about to kill my old ass.
I had seen him there in the corner as plain as could be,
But I guess I let that “fantasy illusion” get the best of me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I had old Big Foot on my mind from that blog of mine,
His image was real fresh in the very front of my mind.
So I guess I conjured up that illusion looking so real.
As I stood out there straining to see up on my old heels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

I headed back into to the house kind of shaken up,
As power came on with me feeling like a scared pup.
So I just went on in and crawled back into my own bed,
Not telling Pam of my experience while feeling so red.

 

Good Night!
