Glass-Eyed Menace.

Twas the night before Christmas,
and throught the house,
not a creature was stirring,
not even a mouse.

But there was a thing,
in that house so dark,
it had the body of a bear,
but a mind of a shark.

It had no bones,
but soft insides,
and fur somewhat,
like animal hides.

It had glass eyes,
of menace and threat,
but you would think,
it was a cuddely pet.

It was something,
you have never seen,
but not on the night before Christmas,
no,
on the night before Halloween.

It stares at you through it's glossy eyes,
but you pick it up and just sigh,
that it could not be,
that your furry friend,
could put your life at an end.

You say it's just a normal bear,
stuffed with wool,
and covered in hair.

But this little teddy,
is not all that it seems,
this little teddy,
can ruin your dreams.

It's strange though,
that this thing can think,
make up plans,
and write with ink.

Not knowing this,
you climb into bed,
pull back the covers,
and lower your head.

Now the bear knows,
you are asleep,
he jumps out your bed,
with one great leap.

He creeps downstairs,
to the kitchen drawers,
and pulls out a knife,
with one of it's paws.

He slowly creeps,
back up to your room,
with the knife in paw,
preparing your doom.

As he stands once more,
on top of your bed,
he places his knife,
a little way from your head.

As he prepares,
to make the deathly rip,
across your throat,
without a slip.

You open your eyes,
and start to scream,
but you're too late,
the knife cuts through you like cream.
