Little Susie's Visitor

dark, taboo subject matter

She creeps around the road at night
so as to not get caught.
She can't afford for the world to know
her deepest, darkest thoughts.

She sneaks around the mesmerizing house,
the last one on the block.
The house that has the pretty little girl
whom she fantasizes about a lot.

Nobody even knows she's there
as she slinks through the front yard.
No one hears her quiet footsteps,
no signaling from their car.

She knows just what the girl is doing
because it's eight P.M.
She's getting out of the shower
with her blinds a little open.

She sleuths into the backyard,
once again undetected.
She perches in her secret corner
where she can't be rejected.

She watches as Susie Lopez
walks into her room in only a towel,
unaware of the aroused woman
sitting out on the prowl.

The woman comes over every night,
and is careful not to get caught.
She can't afford for her family to know
about her twisted thoughts.

She would never touch little Susie,
she just needs a way out.
She promises herself every night
that she'd never act the fantasies out.

I really liked this. It was kind of creepy but, great.

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful and scary story. Never know what another person is thinking. I like the set-up and the thoughts of the character. No weakness in the outstanding poem.
