It closed in 1972 (hangings had not been done in years,) renovating was done but the creepiness remained; one hundred and fifty unmarked graves were found, deemed a heritage building it was turned into a hostel. It is said to be haunted by the men executed there, the dark cells can be rented on that top death floor; small cells with tiny barred windows the only light, some have seen ghosts standing at the end of their cots. There are creaking cell gates and heavy footsteps heard, wailing and weeping and praying all the night long; on a dare- I rented a top floor cell with bars, and was told the gallows still remained down the hall. I went to my bunk not really believing the stories, but in the night hands were reaching, pulling me; I screamed but no one was there, restless, I started walking a dark narrow hall. There was a man walking also and I wanted to talk, hello, sir, I called but he did not stop as I followed; he opened a door and went through, I hesitated a moment, then, I opened the door, it was the gallows . . . His was hanging, his neck broken, his eyes staring, I tried to scream but no sound came as hands pulled me; decomposed dead were reaching and all had broken necks, I was screaming when my body dropped into an empty void. Found in the morning, crumpled and weeping, talking hysterically about being hanged by decomposed men; muttering about being dead, dead, dead, and from the dark side of my mind I cannot escape . . . ever The mental hospital where I reside is like a jail cell, where ghosts hang me each night in the gallows, where I fall into that empty vast void, screaming, screaming, screaming . . . in the silence. ______________________________ September 25, 2022 (edit from September 19, 2016) Poetry/Verse/One From the Dark Side of My Poetry Copyright Protected, ID 09-1490-294-25 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Submitted into the contest, From The Dark Side sponsor, John Lawless, Judged 10/04/2022 Ninth Place
