All Hallows Night

All Hallows Night It’s a dark wicked night When the spirits alight From graves and tombs, to wander Tis the brave that go out The strong and the stout Whose sanity they risk to squander The ghosts and the ghouls Are out for those fools Who roam, for trick or for treat With every step bidden Dark forces are hidden Madness, they’re certain to meet This is the night Dead come out to fright The release of the former deceased Vengeance they seek Mayhem to reek Their passage to heaven increased Heads revolving clockwise Revenge in their eyes To drag you down to catacombs Once you are there They’ll strip the soul bare Inflict on you ten thousand dooms So before you die Look into the eye Of those, that have done you wrong Remind with a smile You’ll be back in a while “Hell’s waiting, I won’t be long. (Mhuahahaha)” For Everything Halloween Contest Sponsored by Russell Sivey Poem Written: 1 Oct 2013

I believe there is a significant religious moral in this event Eileen, to remind us to be good to one another while we're here. Thank you making this exception to your rule, I appreciate your comment very much, as always

I liked what you said about the stories down here to me. sounds fun. We used to pass around body parts using food, like spagetti for the intestines and grapes for the eyes. In the dark, it is pretty disgusting!!

Pretty scary. Let me learn the mhuahahaha... So, you are the "other gentleman Richard" who deserved an acrostic from our friend Lucy! Happy to meet you in this Halloween mood...On my way to look for another piece that could sound more "gentlemanlike". (^_^) Your advice here doesn't suit much what I was looking for, at the moment! Wish you the best for the contest, for it is a very good write indeed! Blessings, Hanitra

I liked the last two stanzas best. They got more and more foreboding!! Russell should love your Halloween entry.

My fave bit of the party is the story telling time, we sit round and one person kicks off with a story, they stop and the next has to carry it on and so on, it just gets crazier and crazier but great fun and really scary lol

Hi Sis, yes I like this rhyme idea myself, fits some poems well. I hope you've learnt from this not to do me wrong, much as I would love to look you in the eye, already I'm working on variations of your ten thousand dooms Mhuhaha....hahahaha
