Shadow Bounty Hunter

Every night at ten

A shadow moves within.

The kids are sleeping

The parents are going.

But still a shadow moves within.

The shadow is full of hatred

And greed is nothing to it.

It lurks up the stairs

And into the kid’s room.

When he stares them down.

He leaves them with nightmares.

Now as the shadow moves away,

One kid jumps up.

He catches sight of the moving shadow

And never wants to again.
