The Stalker

THE STALKER I had a feeling of being watched It made me so uneasy I looked around but saw no one I really felt quite queasy This went on for several weeks And then one day he approached me I had no place to make a retreat No on there to help me He made obscene remarks As he held me in his grasp My mind began to wonder Just how long will all this last And then the thought occurred to me What sort of coward is this creep To stoop so low as to attack someone And I began to weep This seemed to somewhat startle him He loosened the grip he had So I punched him in the nose And blood gushed forth rather bad When I decided to punch him again The coward then turned and ran I stood amazed at what I had done To this creep who was less than a man Now I carry pepper spray I don't really need to carry a gun 'Cause if I'm ever accosted again I can make the coward run

Wow, this is a wonderful write my friend! I hope this never has happened to you in real life! I know how writers prerogative works so I understand that if this is purely fiction! I write quite a bit of fiction works, but some people think that I am writing about myself, I don't always write on the poem that it was fiction...as that seems to deter from the poem whenever I do! You have written such a magnificent piece here this morning (yesterday actually) and I'm surely impressed! Great Work!!

Thanks, Bob! How good to hear from you. I hope you are right about it being a winner. I have been entering contests for the past couple of months. Some I won, some I lost, and some I got rained out. But that's how it goes in this game. All is well at the Moorman household. I pray all is well with you and Vera. I continue to pray for you both.
