I hide in a corner
A fearful fawn in deep distress
Having just dialed
911
My psychotic roommate
Paces violently around the house like an enraged
Tiger
Trying to hunt me down
And rip my innocent head off!
And then he comes
A great dark bear in police uniform
Magnificent moustache
Majestically striding into the driveway
His kind face seems weary from all the violence in this strange world
My heart flutters with excitement
As I fling the door wide open
Rushing into his massive arms
Clinging to him for protection
