STEALTH

by | Nov 17, 2011 | Poetry | 0 comments

Your cold and wet and shiver
As you crawl through the bush
Hungry and confused as you try not to rush
Creep past the gate, don’t set off the light
You’d seal your fate with one mistake and ruin your whole damn night
You’ve worked so hard to cross the yard and now you’re at the door
Reaching for the handle, nerves twitch for sweat to pour
You’ve come so far, at the door, time to take your chance
Slip inside and try to hide from footsteps that advance
With a stumble on the rug, you fall upon your face
With no-one here to help you, you’re flat out like a snake
Feeling like a fool, you give your nose a rub, you’ve been caught red handed, sneaking from the pub!
