Heart Stopping Scream
Heart stopping scream.
Permeates the woods.
A woman being murdered.
I grab my flashlight.
I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
I glare at my friend.
A woman is being killed.
I am going to save her.
That was a bobcat, she says.
I come right back to the deck.
There are no more screams
But yips of coyotes.
