[hometext] => When one is led astray, interesting things happen...
[bodytext] => The pitter-patter of my footsteps Sound loudly against the empty street— Tonight fog is my only companion. The air, heavy with cold, Chills the body as well as the mind. A sensation of shivers Pulses through me, but not only from the wintry weather. Strange houses leer out at me As I wander into unfamiliar territory. It seems my companion has led me astray. Another echoes my pitter-patter— I am not alone, not alone— My heart pounds brutally against my ribs, And a heavy rasping permeates the air As the houses fly past in an array of blacks and grays. Finally a familiar house stands out of the shadows— Panic subsides, subsides— I have beaten the foes nobody knows And the shivers are gone, gone.
