Ruskie the Raccoon-Home Invasion

Ruskie the racoon 

Saw the moon  

Started to cry  

Knowing the critter had to try   

Defending some one's lie  

From stars it did shine  

Onto the untankful line  

A planet in the night  

Trying to be bright  

Giving off enough light  

Wearing a bandit mask  

Ruskie was giving a violent task  

Invading a home  

To see if anyone was alone  

Opening the door  

Ruskie crept on the floor  

Ready to declare it clear  

Nothing to fear  

Until a small image did appear  

Coming up from Ruskie’s rear  

Holding a silver firearm  

Used on the cattle back at the barn  

With survival in the eye   

A child had the decision 'if Ruskie was going to die?'  

There was a pleaded request  

Before sending Ruskie to a place to rest  

“Ruskie please stop  

Or I will pull this trigger making a sound that will go pop pop 

And if this does happen  

In your pants you will do some crappin”

Poor racoon. I hope he lived to see another day. They can carry rabies so be careful. I enjoyed reading your work. Sara
