Summer's Room: An Ode to The Forbidden Game by L. J. Smith
I cannot see the walls
I cannot see the floor
The bugs are larger then Zach
And Tom
And Jenny
All smashed together
Julien laughs from above
But I cannot see him
The stacks are too high
And I cannot see those glowing blue eyes
The blue of the sky
Right before the sun rises
The blue of the sky
In that short moment right after the sun sets
The color we have seen millions of times
But only have seen once or twice
The snake slithers around
But gets stuck under the bed
Which stands at a total of 50 feet tall
The wolf lets out a howl
And a pile falls over
And a big pillow lands into his mouth
And then we scream
As a large web joins the scene
And a spider crawls over the chair
Yes,
the spider crawls over
Crawls over the 60 foot chair
