monster

the door opens with a creak
silent footsteps cross the floor
her eyes shut tight in terror
HAIL MARY FULL OF GRACE...
the footsteps stop right by her bed
warm breath upon her ear
the putrid smell of rotten teeth
BLESSED ART THOU AMONG WOMEN...
she dares not make a sound
for fear mama will get hurt
so silently she screams for help
HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD...
as he pulls her panties down
a deafening shot rings out
she sees mama at the door
PRAY FOR US SINNERS NOW...
as mama rushes to her side
she sees daddy laying in the floor
it never hurts to pray
AMEN
