Strip the soil
Seed the lawn
Leave no footprints
Flee by dawn
The groundlings know
when you are gone
Hollow eyes
harbor disease
Mounded heads
filled with fleas
The groundlings like
to suck and squeeze
Muddy stares
multitudes
Human heel’s
their favorite food.
The groundlings love
their footsies nude.
Seed the lawn
Strip the soil
Make sure that
your plants don’t spoil.
The groundlings rise
like backyard boils

Thank you; I’m a barefoot summer wanderer, but not if the groundlings arrive. 😉 I appreciate you reading and commenting.

Well, depends on the precipitation and the season, but roughly formed clouds these creatures.

This would definitely have given me nightmares as a child! So inventive. Love the image too.

Thank you 😀. Yes, I need to link the artist, I forgot in my Halloween fun. I found the concept disturbing, the groundlings make each step scary.
