Stalker

===================

Peering at her as she sleeps,
nearing tiers of the devout...

Smearing pleas on the glass as he peeps,
impotent, from the grass. He's about

to unfold the silk memoir he keeps,

and lovingly smooth it out.

Thank you, Andrea. I wanted to illicit a real "creepy peeper" feeling (without getting too risque) so I made a few changes that I think speak to that vibe a little better. Tell me if you agree...
