(A small and creepy one.  Pretty self-explanatory.)

I hear your steps above

As they echo through the earth

I refuse to yell or scream

For fear of eating soil

A taste I will not love

Instead I kick and beat

At objects out of sight

Hoping to catch your ears

Before I sleep again

About Charles Yallowitz

Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.
