Evil growls from behind.
Ghastly chuckles right beside.
Terror has arrived.

smile through everything no matter how bad it gets because it could be worse and if it gets worse well then it can only get better. :)

This poem is short, but straight to the point. I feel like it illustrates a nightmare very quickly yet accurately and was very well written and to the point. Good job!
