Antigonish (poem)

Antigonish is a poem that tells the story of a person walking down the street and feeling like there is someone following them. They turn around to see who it is, but nobody is there. This happens a few more times and it starts to make them scared.

The poem has a creepy feeling to it because it leaves you wondering if the person is being followed by someone who is hiding, or if it's just their imagination playing tricks on them.

In a way, the poem is like a spooky ghost story that you might hear around a campfire. It's meant to make you feel a little scared, but also curious about what might be happening.
