I saw a little girl once. She was walking across a bridge. She was singing loud and clear."When you see the hearse go by
you know some day your gonna die,
the worms crawl in the worms crawl out
in you stomach and out your mouth
your eyeballs rot
your teeth decay
and that's the end of a wonderful day!"I walked up to her and asked her where her mother was. She looked only about 6 years old. She just stared at me like I was a crazy person. Then like she could read my mind she started chanting under her breath.
"Crazy!
I was crazy once.
They put me in the corner of a round, round, room, it was cold, i died.
They buried me.
Worms ate my guts.
Worms tickle.
Tickling drives me crazy."Just those words, over and over and over again. I asked her if she was ok. I look into her eye and before she answered a coal black hearse went by. She said one innocent, yet deadly word. "Goodbye" She skipped away. I was left with a strange feeling in my guts, something tickling me. I look down to see worms flailing in and out of me. I collapsed onto the ground and saw her flash into my mind, "Welcome to my world, no one will mind..."
