I feel the brisk air come from the door above,

I knew something was wrong.

The basement is lit only with a single hanging lightbulb and the faint glow of my television,

I knew
SOMETHING WAS WRONG.

You see I found this little house for rent with an old newspaper ad I was surprised it was still for rent,

its pretty decent besides the leaky pipes,creaky floors and the noisy street ,

I also leave the door open so the basement doesn't get too stuffy,

You might be wondering why I would be in my basement,

you see down here I have my solitude away from the noise of the outside,

although at night I hear things.

I'm sure of it a monster.

I know I sound crazy but I'm sure a monster hides in the dark corners of my basement.

Which brings me here in the middle of the night.

as I reach for the remote to shut down the TV I hear the intensified breathing of the monster 1...2....3.."CLICK",

I get up and go to the light switch with much haste.

I am hesitant to turn off the light but..1..2...3.."CLICK",

I RUN AS FAST AS I CAN

though I feel the rough skin of the monster and smell it's breath I feel it try to drag me back to the abyss,

but I was too fast for it.

As I quickly shut the door I hear the it stop,

slowly I look down fearing it to be the monster trying to get me,

but with a sigh of relief I see it was only a sock.

I throw it to the abyss and its thrown back to me.....
