There was a lizard in the room

There is a lizard in the room
Climbing up
Hiding itself
Frightening all
Disappears suddenly
My shrieks make you terrified?
Stop hiding yourself
Get aside
Spare me
And go away
So dreadful you seem
As I scream
Just go
Let me take a sigh of relief
You are gone now
Thank you for going
I don't keep your food here
Never come back
There was a lizard in the room

Up to the stars;
Or, true to the Almighty plan,
That out of dust created man,
