Don’t Go in the Basement

Don’t Go in the Basement

A Poem by Bo Lanier

Oh DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT child,

Don’t let them in; don’t let them get to you

Keep all the doors that lead downstairs

Double locked, I’m telling you this for your

Own good child, do whatever you gotta do

Just DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT...

For your basement is a portal to hell

Where demons come-a crawling up from

An old water well and a new one with

Five heads and tails just made his way

From out of the bottomless pit today and

He whispers to outcome child 'cuz I know

A really good game you'd love to play oh

But you must be wise and see through

His disguise, please listen to me and please

Do not turn that key, I know at your age

It’s hard to do what you’re told but if you

Don’t do what you’re told you will surely be

Ripped from the innocence of your precious

Soul oh so...

DON'T GO IN THE BASEMENT child 'cuz

They are there just waiting to hurt you now

So keep all the doors that lead downstairs

Closed and double locked, I’m telling you for

Your own good child, you can do whatever

You wanna do just DON'T, DON’T GO IN THE

BASEMENT!
