Death Stare

Looks

Death Stare

There she was

Staring into thin air

Oh, but what a glare

Saying, enter if you dare

Couldn't tell whether or not she cared

It was something hard to bare

Just like out of a nightmare

Difficult to compare

Eyes rather rare

In fact they weren't even there

Empty sockets

Next thing she reached into her pockets

Pulled out a couple of rockets

Put them right in there

Doesn't seem fair

Wasn't sure if I should pull up a chair

Or maybe accept her dare

Might be very rare

Stepping into her lair

Competing with my worst nightmare

Peering into her death stare
