Analysis of New Hampshire Cabin
They came to our
Holiday Cabin.
First one, the big one
Seemed uncommonly
Friendly to our
Little girl. Wen.
Playing with her, gently.
And grasshoppers.
All four of them
Insisted on entering
Our rented place.
Access denied.
Hell of a struggle.
They entered.
We two men were apprehended.
Tied to chairs.
Told the scenario
That haunted each of the four
For days
By supernatural revelation.
Could not be avoided.
The world would end shortly
By overwhelming Apocolypse.
Unless we three made the right
And costly decision.
Could not make use of anyone else.
Why us two gay guys
And a little Oriental daughter?
Deadly dialogue.
Horrific alternatives.
Strangest weapons brandished.
One of their three
Is killed.
Voluntarily.
The world is saved.
No alternative. Sorry.
