Beware the deadly hedgehog with its armour on its back

It is sneaking through the linens preparing to attack

Though you may slam the door on it, it’s coming through the wall

Although it’s very tiny, there is no hope left at all.

You will die a gruesome death, my friend, unless you show your fright

Your screams will echo loudly  ’til you defeat it with the light!

My husband has the craziest dreams.  The other night he woke up screaming, so I  asked what had happened in the dream. Ya ha.  Armoured hedgehog attack.  No kidding.  I’m still laughing!
