Rocky's Nighttime Visitors

Rocky’s Nightime Visitors By Elton Camp In a sleazy hotel Rocky decided to stay But he figured it would likely be okay He turned the deadbolt and set the chain In safety he intended that he’d remain The neighborhood far sure not first rate But he was tired and it was getting late Hookers passed outside on the street But none of them did he care to meet He went to sleep but heard a sound That told him something was around Rocky felt a light touch to his cheek, And opened his eyes to take a peek Quite wild eyes he saw looking back And legs that were slim and black He wondered what he was gonna do Easy to handle one, but there were two Even a macho man like he felt alarm And had no doubt they meant harm Although it would give him no thrill. If necessary, he was willing to kill They came to his bed totally uninvited But their presence made him excited But it was far too risky to let them stay So Rocky brushed the big spiders away
