All Hallow's Eve Mystic World
Restless is the ghostly inky night,
whilst the full moon hangs in possession,
drenching the encompassing
fields of living with blood lunar light.
Enthralling hour of All Hallow's Eve
in frenzy clangor.
A shrill whistle in the distance
of alien presence, stalking with trickery,
abduction, and murder,
behest by spirits through the night.
Witchcraft and diabolical possession
demon, lantern-bearers guardians
of the great gate of Halloween.
Take heed those that are brave enough
to be out in the dark,
lanterns in the hands
of trembling fingers, and stumbling steps.
Take any beyond dire cautionary
warnings of dangers of shadows
and ghost that linger.
Don't stare paralyzed
at yellow eyes that shine
luminously in the dark,
with fear or killed by the bite
of the charismatic vampires.
Muffled and raspy breathing
of the grotesque lycanthrope
heartbeat pulse, steady and strong
fighting and feasting
on debris of flesh that were not human.
