Cellar Door

You look at me in fear

Of what might be in here

I spit dust at you from every crack



You walk away, you chose

Again to leave me closed

I creak obscenities at your back



The cobwebs that form my frame

Thicken each time I win our game

But then you turn back around and give my handle a heave



You open me just a crack

Peer in the dark and shut me back

I laugh as you shudder, turn around and leave

i have to snicker at this one. i'm thinking how my unmade bed, dirty dishes or tub may sneer at me from time to time. a real clean freak would whip your cellar!!
