Ghost Boy

On Halloween,
things come to a head,
so don't intervene,
when waking the dead.

Loud, crashing noises,
as he runs through the house,
taking many disguises,
as he runs about.

Light bulbs are popping,
windows ajar,
ornaments for trashing,
sounds, from a ghostly guitar.

water overflowing,
out of the sinks,
slippery floors,
everything stinks.

toilets are bubbling,
cisterns are spitting,
ceiling fans grumbling,
tv is hissing.

Coal fire's smoking,
not even lit,
cat's gone - no joking,
he had been bit!.

Ice cold around you,
better get away,
Ghost boy's here,
outlasting his stay!

Halloween,
his favorite time,
to make you scream,
drive you out of your mind!

"Whooo-ah!"
you hear him wail,
as you flee through the door,
and put your house up for sale!!
