Assorted Heroic Words: Bogy

an imaginary frightful being

When he was very little,
Marty's father would threaten him
with a bogy:
"Touch that ashtray
and the bogy will get you!"
or,
"If you don't eat your dinner,
the bogy will throw a shoe!"

Consequently,
Marty did not mind stealing
that suit.

  1. Ha ha. Nice. I wonder if he stopped believing or hoped to meet the bogy?
