Haunting (interlude)

"After I had moved into my apartment two weeks,
I awoke with hands around my throat;
this went on for one week.
My radio played when not plugged in.
I heard someone run across my attic floor.
I saw my tufted rug—my tufted rug
appear like someone was walking on it.
I had foul odors in the apartment in the wintertime.
I awoke one night to a cat meowing and I had no cat,
nor did the tenant below me.
Knocks came from inside my attic door.
One night a bat, or bird, flew against my head;
I am not sure which, it happened so fast.
I saw chimpanzees appear in my bedroom.
I heard my name being called,
and when I turned to look,
I saw my broth—"
*Tape fast-forwarding*
"So who was really trying to kill me?
Not my friend, but Satan.
Why I didn't know."
