Ghouls
There's
plenty of ghouls
on land and
sea
some
drowned
others just
tried to flee
from a life
long and
hard
or a crime
they didn't foresee
watery
deaths
or bones
those
murderers
buried deep
terra Earth
will always
be discreet
but on
Halloween
those spirits
will arise
to remind
the living
that evil thrives
and is
always close by.

It's almost time for the "WEP"
I suspect (hope) that my natural perversity would carry though after death, and I would walk any damn time I felt like it.
ReplyDeleteLove your poem though.
Thanks, Sue. I would walk too, anytime I felt like it. Just try and keep me down. :)
DeleteGreat tease to get us excited for the October WEP. Great poem.
ReplyDeleteI love Halloween, and the WEP challenges. Such fun!
DeleteLove it!!!
ReplyDeleteLove you!
DeleteHi Renee - excellent poem ... love the way you take us through to 'The Scream' ... ghouls - could have had plenty of those today arising from the thrashing seas ... cheers! Hilary
ReplyDeleteToo many ghouls for my taste but those who've met an untimely death deserve their chance to speak too! :)
