Haiku about you.

Alligator Man
tell me another story
ghost not yet haunted

this old covered bridge
creaks in anticipation
beware, tread lightly

for beyond the hill
lies a pond full of beauty
if only you’ll see

that by honeyed words
am magnitized like a bee
a moth to the flame

only you to blame
be careful what you wish for
more than a handful
