Dilemma Leo Mbalamana

I was sitting on the porch Surrounded by darkness I saw a man glazing a torch I kept looking at him to see what will happen He raised his weapon And started shooting at my cabin The bullets pierced through the wood I could smell it burn To avoid any injuries I decided to twist and turn Involuntarily action is something you don’t learn But if you don’t do it your life you will not earn I rushed back inside to comfort my daughter Before this man opens the door to slaughter Suddenly the shooting stopped, I was still in shock All I could hear was the ticking of my clock I rushed to a cupboard where I kept my semiautomatic This was about to get catastrophic I looked at my daughter and told her not to panic I’ll handle this satanic titanic
