Escalation

By Mike Morbid

A woman is following me.
I am guessing she is lonely.
Having a stalker gives me glee.
It makes me feel quite naughty.

This is becoming bothersome.
She phoned up and called me a scum.
She disguised her voice with a hum.
But I know where the call came from.

Next door she is now a boarder.
She has a mental disorder.
She is ignoring the order.
I got it to try to ward her.

I wake up to find my hands tied.
She is standing by my bedside.
Telling me she is now my bride,
and we must toast with cyanide.
