Glowing
With a menacing blue light
It’s watching
Heart racing
Trying to breath quietly
Sneaking past
The blue eye
Scanning in the darkness
Scanning for intruders
Cycling and clicking
Gears spinning
Servos whining
Everything that lives
In that room
At that time
Wondering
What if it sees
What if it hears
What will it do
The lack of answers
Is terrifying
The door is closer
Almost close enough
Almost
Foot slips
Loose tile clatters
The blue beam eye
Focuses upon the noise
Looking at the floor first
Where the tile is
Scanning the entire room
Half a second later
No intruders found
All is well
Report
Resume standard sweep
