  • GHOSTLY REMINDER

    A house on Thriller Blvd
    It was empty

    It looked haunted

    I wasn’t sure if I should step in or stay out

    My mind went on caution

    Yet curious
    As I entered the house and moved around

    I was confronted by a mysterious image, and it surrounded me

    It started chanting and the voice was eerie

    At least that was my theory

    It turned out to be a Ghost
    Unfortunately, it was Casper nor friendly

    Chills went up and down my spine

    I felt the urge for some serious wine

    That haunted house had plenty of moans and groans

    I thought maybe I should leave this house and the Ghost alone

    A mouse was frightened and shaking in a corner

    My every moment was a dare

    Yet curious with care

    What was I thinking?

    This was definitely a mystery

    Then again, I could be history

    This would be the perfect time to run

    I want to live being among

    Suddenly the Ghost demanded that I get out

    I didn’t need any order to tell me that

    My thought was your demand is at my command

    My mind may have been on disorder

    I didn’t move fast enough

    I was thinking this is all bluff

    However, the Ghost proved his point

    The Ghost chanted, “He was David Hess who once lived in the house, but was murdered by a family member”

    I was witnessing his spirit

    I hope he doesn’t I was the murderer

    I am not even a family member

    All I could think of feet and legs don’t fail me now

    Let me get out of the house oh wow

    I ran until I couldn’t run anymore

    I can tell you that for sure
    I will never forget that haunted house

    Flesh of no return
