I Am In Position

Dottie moved six states away to get rid of her stalker
not realizing how long his reach is or how many cousins he has.
a lovely day at the park where she buys balloons on a whim.
One of the balloons turns as she sits on the bench.
His giant eye fastened itself to her, watching her every move.
I am in position, he reports back to headquarters.
The man who paid the balloon guy smiles, she is still his then.

Wow, a chilling story in one small verse. I have heard how difficult it is to get rid of a stalker.
