- In the World of the Dead -

The demons of the night have doubled
                           the unsaved are simply in terrible trouble
                              Moist mist, death, stinky rats and ash
                      Haunting malicious, they come in a blinding flash
                         Shadows of human beings as dark silhouettes
                            you're so close, I can smell your cigarette
                              A living nightmare or just ugly makeup
                      even the cat that slept on a velvet pillow wakes up

Sam Kauffman Date: 11/11/2020 12:17:00 PM Wonderful eerie images, Anne-Lise. Your cigarette reference reminds me of a chandelier my cousins bought in New Orleans. Every so often they would smell cigarette smoke and cheap perfume in the dining room until one day told the "spirit" to go down to the French market where it belonged. Never happened again!
