Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Silver Bullet Blues

My wife was out with the girls so

I was at home and all alone.

Outside I saw the full moon glow,

Then heard a howl in scary tone.

It could be a werewolf I thought.

A believer I always be.

Just in case my pistol I got,

And silver bullet given me

By my wife once as just a joke.

But now protection it would bring,

Shot with it a werewolf would croak.

In the bushes I shot something.

I got the surprise of my life,

No werewolf, just my hairy wife.
