Another Scary Story

You make your move
Up the stairs
a cool breeze
Makes you flare

You shiver
like a duck on a river

You stay still
Stoned for death
White as a ghost
Fleet like a pest

You race
Like a cow flowing on the upper side of space

You make your move
Down the stairs
A cool breeze
Leaves the air

Must agree with Bob, Sajdah. That "cool breeze" is often associated with spiritual apparitions. Very nice write! Love, Carolyn
