October Scene

In the dead of night All spooky things come onto the scene Creeping up behind you To wreak havoc in your dreams Zombies rise up out of the grounds Of the cemetery making low grumbling sounds Male corpses escort their brides Down the darkened street With worms and insects crawling out of their heads And all over their feet Vampires break open their coffins Turn into bats and begin to fly In search of the fresh smell of blood That they consume of which they can’t deny Frankenstein awakens on the experiment table Knocks his creator out cold Then he embarks on a journey to haunt people and to let His true scare tactics unfold Black cats come out of dead end corners Stroking on lookers with bad luck Diminishing all good spirits To fade away into the dust Black crows start flying out In pitch black skies Ready to strike At all the curious little eyes Werewolves creep out from Within the depths of the forest If any piece of human flesh walks by the hunger of these creatures Won’t cease to flourish Demons sneak into the souls Of numerous individuals alike To start a spiritual war putting them through Extreme anguish throughout the night Ghosts start haunting empty rooms Rats crawl from left to right Ravens sit on top of scarecrows screeching Leaving the whole neighborhood in fright Owls hoot loudly while Sitting on tree branches Warlocks come flying on their pitchforks that Lucifer gave them Before he was dropped from Heaven’s stances Mummies awaken from Their Egyptian tombs Wrapped up in several bandages Expelling decaying bodily fumes Gargoyles erupt shedding Their skins of stone Any signs of mercy They will not condone Witches boiling cauldrons of poison To give to dumb and blind pedestrians Headless horseman lurk around Installing fear into grade A thespians When all of these creatures unite from east to west You don’t stand a chance prepare to meet your death By Glenn McCrary © 2009 Glenn McCrary (All rights reserved)
