Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of a curvaceous ghost

A Halloween Haunt

Pulchritudinous looks, unscrupulous ways hook 
Junoesque one apart, pneumatic in mouthpart

Those coconut-like callipygian haunts cull
Leave alone howling wolves, despite being ourselves!

Hey, I got one--coconut, phew! Well, I blew off the dust from my thesaurus, Sara, actually only the Juno..., which I figured it leaned towards the Roman goddess. Interestingly enough, it left a grin for your witty spookology, my friend. Aloha, William

I am glad you looked them up, Jack, and I hope they become some that you might use. LOL..I can't remember new words anymore, so I guess I won't be using them very much. Sara K

Wow, this is such an amazing alexandrine poem, really haunting and bewitching, perfect for the Halloween vibe! I want to write a dark poem now mmm haha :) but truly, your vocabulary & wordplay, both are so immaculate here, with brilliant rhymes and flow.. "unscrupulous ways hook" Woah.. And that last line, really intriguing! Sending you love and poetic hugs :)

Why, thank you, Hiya. I appreciate the high praise. Life has its unscrupulous hooks all the time especially at Halloween with some people playing dirty tricks so I have been told. Sara K
