Cracks
Halloween approaches as autumn encroaches
The structures of all worlds fractured and torn
No-one or nothing prepare for what is to be born,
In the heavens above are gods who are misunderstood
Us 'twixt between, angry at governments, not good!
Then there is those way down below,
Where no mortal man wants or dreams to go.
Awaiting this date to avenge their fate.
Small cracks which have appeared
Things needing mending but mere mortals sneer,
Allowing their societies to riot, spread notoriety,
The undead seize their chances to walk amongst men
Hoping their gods may this time pardon them,
They are the undead condemned to fiery hell,
A peaceful existence would not bode well
The murders, rapists and all of life's scum
Become the undead or zombies if they don't succumb
To an ordered pleasant reality
A human race, loving and respecting community.
But those cracks that have appeared in our earthly existence,
Negate our guarantee of evil resistance!
So if pavement cracks suddenly appear
Scream loudly, scream out in fear !
In hope that your fellow man
Will help you fight evil if he can
But the horror of this world
Is that people's ability for empathy is unfurled
Evil is not the zombies or the undead
Fear only those that breathe instead !

Behind Closed Doors
Behind Closed Doors
Shush quiet Can you hear ?
Your closest neighbours Screaming in fear
Vibrating through the earthly still
A blood curling, piercing, spine chilling,shrill,
Behind close doors where few may peek
May live a hideous inhuman freak,
Only here in human form
Waiting patiently for a new moon to dawn,
Then its fangs will appear organically
His thirst for blood will grip him manically
So your neighbour who you greet
Say hello too each time you meet,
May not be all he seems,
So shush quiet
Can you hear
Your neighbour
Scream !

A Scream In The Night
Scream In The Night
I slept soundly, morning always came way too soon !
When suddenly, a wild piercing blood curdling scream
Startled me to a jolt from my world of dreams,
I sat bolt upright,chilled to the bone,
Something not human. possessed my home,
Banging and thumping I could hear from afar,
The moon light skipped in through my door ajar,
Gingerly, half asleep, I stumbled out of my bed,
To face the confusion that was causing me dread !
The screaming bounced around, resonating off every wall,
I tiptoed as quiet as I could, heart beating into the hall,
The banging and screaming multiplied and amplified,
My beating heart and thumping fear became louder, fortified,
I edged up closer and closer getting nearer and nearer
To the terrific noise, the source which was now hardcore !
As I felt along the wall with fingertips to the mouth of the door,
Entering I came face to face with a pink coloured tangle,
Goo Oozing out of a face that seemed mangled,
A monster possessed just wanting to fight,
I'd completely forgot that tonight was that night
I promised, I'd take to it like a duck to water,
A night I could look after my god-daughter
A cuddle and coo to this little angel ensued
For if her mummy and daddy knew this story,
I would be totally screwed !!!!
Doolally Doris
We have a haunting
Its not that daunting
It's an old dame called Doris
Who use to live wild in the forest
She is the craziest ghost,
But unlike most
She loves to act daft!
Have a laugh!
So every Halloween
She has the same old routine,
She floats in to town,
Shadows all the children around
She chuckles and jokes
Like a very drunken bloke
This is her treat,
To all of us in the street,
BUT
She is so spookily of her nut
She bids us farewell

Anyone For A Kickabout
Anyone For A Kickabout
We were off to visit my great great auntie Jean
She was old, wrinkly, spindly and mean,
Because of her big cabaggy ears
She'd shout real loud she said to make her self clear
In her rickety rickety old house made of wood
We played quietly like mice that was understood
She kept strange things high up on shelves
An eyeball in a jar and dolls that looked like elves
From the shelves hung whips of dried up lavender
As far as I know she was never a gardener
One night when the moon shone and I couldn't rest
I crept down those creaky stairs quiet as I could, I tried my best
I sat on the bottom step and saw with my very own eyes
The dolls come to life, turned in to their Elfy guise,
They shimmed down the lavender ropes
Somehow with the jar aloft they kind of coped
They dance upon the jar top
And clapped with glee when it went pop
That staring eye was suddenly kicked out
The elves went mad and began to shout
The next I knew they were playing eyeball!
The eye was kicked as they played
The eyeball rolled and gunge was splayed
it looked like there had been a slug invasion
Slime was all over the house on that occasion
No one team seem to win a game
But one of the elves became very lame
All his kin seem suddenly scared
And shimmed back up the lavender
It seemed they didn't care!
Next morning I found I fallen asleep at the bottom of the stairs
What I saw next, tickle me all over, even my hair !
My great great auntie Jean pick up the now still dead elf
Looked up and counted the others were still on the shelf
With one flick of her hand the elf melted into her hearing horn
The bit she held it by, the bit that was well worn!
She search the floor, scoured all about,
She followed some slime trails around the room
Then she finally she spied it, it had rolled beside her broom
Never was I to return to my great great Auntie Jeans
But I was never to forget what I swear I had seen
So beware of old ladies with bits on very high shelves
For they may need a new team of eyeball playing elves
