"Fame" Is My Name

He growled, and he snarled
And swatted the air.
My mouth dropped wide open;
Up went my hair!

I was so fearful
While glued in my tracks.
As my knees knocked together,
My breath came in racks!

He glared, wild-eyed,
As he stalked through the room.
Then I swiped and swung
At him with a broom.

Adrenaline flowed;
I was bold as I fought.
He became very nervous,
Afraid he'd get caught.

Doom weighed on him;
His heart became heavy.
He surrendered and then
Threw down his machete.

He ran to the east
Then out of my house
That vicious, gigantic
Little brown mouse.

I rose to my victory-
Truly so proud
And signed autographs
For the gathering, awed crowd.

Barb:  Is this the same mouse you allowed to eat crumbs a few poems ago? I think that's called "entrapment"
