Night of the Red Moon

Last night,
Was the night,
Of the red moon.
Everyone asked -
" Did you get a good look,
At the red moon last night!? "
" No sadly. "
I replied.
" Because usually,
During those nights,
I begin ripping the flesh
Off of innocent victims. "
" Because you know,
On those nights,
I turn into a werewolf. "
" It's a common problem,
That I have. "
After saying that,
In a calm demeanor -
Everyone began,
To turn bright white.
" Err ... I mean ... "
I stuttered -
Thinking to myself,
That I better change my story.
For they were growing suspicious.
" Err ... uh ... Just kidding,
Of course I saw the red moon. "
" Although,
Not the red moon,
That you might of seen. "
" You see,
I was sitting on the kitchen counter,
Checking for texts,
When I felt a slight burning sensation,
On my own ass.
As I looked down,
I realized that I was sitting on the stove. "
" And wouldn't you know it,
I accidentally turned it on.
And after checking the results,
In my bathroom,
I got the greatest view,
Of the red moon. "
As I laughed,
At my own joke,
Like a cool person,
That I was -
Nobody looked that convinced.
They walk towards me,
And asked -
" Are things ok at home? "
" Well ... no actually. "
I said.
" I just burnt my ass. "
