Knock
By @thehattedtomfool

Knock,
Knock.
A beat against the drum.

Knock,
Knock.
The fear that makes you run.

Knock,
Knock.
There's feet outside the door..

Knock,
Knock.
And bodies on the floor.

Knock,
Knock.
They're forcing their way in!

Knock,
Knock.
I scream against the din.

Knock,
Knock.
"Please help!" They're nearly here!

Knock,
Knock.
My heartbeat full of fear.

Knock,
Knock.
The door bursts open wide!

Knock,
Knock.
Their axes by their side..

Knock,
Knock.
The house is giving way!

Knock,
Knock.
Firefighters in the fray..
