Creaking
     "Creaking"

  My back snaps
    Deeply within
   Reverberating
  Like broken glass
    Thick shards
   Grinding together
        SHIFTING
    I can feel
      The motion
     From someone
      Who thought
        HE HAD
       To kick that
        Bathroom DOOR
       Into my spine
        Shattering IT
       He didn't feel
           GUILTY
        They never do
       For very long      
         EVERYTHING
        Inside of me
       Creaks and pops
         It isn't odd
            TO ME
         To feel this
              WAY
            ALL OVER
              NOW
      Night's fallen
        It's curtains
          Descended
         My eyes
       Scan darkness
          My ears
       Prick at sounds
          Ever slight
         The hounds
           Are silent
       There's no one
         OUT TONIGHT
           NOT YET
         Perhaps later
       The stalking
          Begins again.
