Daddy's Gonna Get You!
By Earl Sinclare

You better watch out, because Daddy’s coming to get you! That’s right, I’m gonna catch you. You can’t escape; Daddy knows everything. He will know if you try to hide, and he will know if you try to run. Are you scared? Well you should be, because once Daddy sets his sights on you, there is no getting away.
How do you think Daddy knew you were hiding under the bed last night? Daddy knows where you are, and he will get you soon enough. Daddy will be nice and look in some other places, but he knows exactly where you are. Are you in the REFRIGERATOR?!? Of course not, and Daddy knew that, but it bolsters your self esteem if Daddy looks in other places before he catches you. Not that it takes a mind reader to catch you; your breathing is so damn loud. Not to mention you laugh every time Daddy looks somewhere, because you think you’re pulling the wool over Daddy’s eyes. You’re not!
If only you could read my mind, then you would realize how piss poor you are at this game. Are you in the HAMPER!?? No, why would you hide there? You’re obviously not smart enough to hide in the hamper, because that would actually be a good spot to hide. Are you under the BED!?!? Of course you are, because that is where you hide every night. Why would you hide anywhere else?
