Probably Maturin, which shows up in IT and The Dark tower series
See the turtle of enormous girth
On his shell he holds the earth
His thought is slow but always kind
He holds us all within his mind
On his back all vows are made
He sees the truth but mayn't aid
He loves the land and loves the sea
And even loves a child like me.
Clowns and snakes are two things that never even remotely tingled my horror vibes.
Centipedes (and scorpions) on the other hand, irrational cosmic horror.
Years ago, I moved to a new part of the world I'd never lived in before. Shortly after getting settled in, I saw my first (completely harmless and highly beneficial) house centipede. I freaked. That asshole animal literally LEPT off the wall aimed straight after my jugular vein. I flicked it to the floor, removed my flip-flop and flung the footwear directly onto that critter. Smashed 90% of its legs off, and the monstrosity still slithered right at me without skipping a beat. What the fuck are they made of? What the fuck is their motivation?
Cosmic Beings in Steven Universe Universe.
Cosmic beings in Elden Ring:

OMG a baby Elden Beast 😍
Turtles are pretty good. Strong shells and feets for marching.
She's a cosmic turtle. So probably a marine turtle is more appropriate.
Still a beauty.
Praise Dog!
(Elden Ring meme)
“Try finger dog!”
How I desperately wish Elden Ring let us use the word “pet,” so I could have wrote that in front of Miriel.
Chuchulhu, by Lovecraft himself
could toss korrok from john dies at the end in there too
What's the turtle referencing?

You're confusing her with the World Turtle A'Tuin from the Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.
Maturin in the King fiction is a lovely cosmic turtle who puked the universe into existence (which in itself explain a lot of things).

How am I confusing the turtle in the Stephen King section and the same turtle from Stephen King that you linked to?
Did you think you were replying to the OP?
That's A’Tuin
The entire poem is pulled directly from the Dark Tower series, referencing Maturin.

And the koala from Star Trek tops them all.
Why is he smiling?! What does he know?!?!
Had a centipede in the shower last night, brain went to, its a fuckingpoisiness entity from the depths of the earth, kill in before it touches you.

To collect your legs. To collect everyone's legs!
You need to stop this. In the back of my mind a little voice whispered "what if they really are after your legs?"
