path monster

My friend and I we went to walk along the favored path
A windy dark with a chill would not deter us from our stroll
Welcoming the eerie evening noises as we began our trail
Enjoying the atmosphere of our giddy fear
We thought we saw a bums’ bed while beneath the bridge
Furthermore the foggy patches along the tangled branches of leafless trees
Sent me giggling with the creeps
I have such fervor for these sensations
Eliciting alarms
Enlivening all the fight or flight reactions
Snapping in my animal brain
