The Malevolent Garden
Gorgeous out here today
Enjoyable that one doesn’t have to pay
Some tiny creature, furious with wrath
Is coming closer, onto your path
An arm trapped underneath a rock
No reason why, many looked and stopped
Beautiful flowers, oh what a delightful smell
As the scent enters your nostrils, this causes one to feel unwell
Wilma Fingerdoo’s girdle was lying on the ground
Her friend Stacy Rect cannot be found
Great Uncle Seymour Snatch standing near the lake
Accidentally fell in, strangled by a snake
Little Jenny Tayla watchers as her aunt
Is pulled feet first inside a plant
Large, hissing swarm of hairy insects
A baby was grabbed as the parents fought, but to no effect
The butler of whom the family is very fond
Is sinking in a marshy, bubbling pond
Suddenly the sky has become completely black
For those still here, better think on turning back
Scream, yell or thrash about
There is no way of getting out
The next morning the Malevolent Garden openes at 10
No evidence from the day before, let’s do this again
