Distraction Danger
The distraction lets the danger right in!

Did you see the man?
In the doorway, hiding.
She didn't, you see
Talking on her phone.
Rushing home.
A silent figure, watching and waiting,
Cunningly planning,
Trying to reach her
Inclined to violence,
Only focused on his prey
Now she's not got much to say.
