In the quiet hours 
of this grand hotel 
I watch in awe 
and disquieting solitude 
as the orb dances on camera 1 
egging me to come see 
but when I arrive 
he has gone 
only to appearon camera 2 upon my return 
this timeI snap his picture 
zoom in to find his faceis theorb 
pointed ears and grinning 
he appears to be posing 
 
I am wracked with fear 
butI mustreturn 
and again I do not see him 
before I leave 
atable shakes violently 
I turn to see a great shadow move across the room 
and intoa wall of darkness 
 
Only the new ones enter that section alone 
but not for long 
they quickly become acquainted 
with the ghost of Ballroom A
