Death By a Haunting Kiss

The House is "SHAKING"

Hell's Angels are attacking it

The black Sky is "ACHING"

Stabs...Strike Lightning Quick

A Great Thunder's "Rumbling"...

In the battle of Devils cried the Stars

Ghost magically appearing

to scratch and  scar the night


Voices Scream out "HELP ME"

Echos terrorize your head

Who's the Spooky creature  

Is it underneath your bed

Check all of the windows

I hear footsteps down the hall

If it's a "HALLOWEEN PRANKSTER"

We'd better make a 9-1-1 call


Remove blinding covers

Be gone "Veil of Eyes"

You will see "DAILY MONSTERS"

Creepy Shadows in disguise

Don't underestimate

The wicked Warlock or "tempting WITCH"

There's EVIL at every corner

Even DEATH by "A HAUNTING KISS"

I now do the "ONE TAKE WRITE" Usually in 5 to 10 minutes to complete a poem... occasionally successful...I highlight to keep the effect of the idea...Mainly for me...So I've decided to leave it so

Wow Arturo, Halloween sometimes seems more scary after the actual date it is participated in - people scare each other to a frightening degree and of course, I'm certain criminal copy cats will try their luck on this night, which inevitably has you looking over your shoulder for sometime after Halloween. - a great write Arturo!, Hugs, Jennifer.

'Just because,' I will tell you that one of my three sons actually had an 'evil spell' cast on him by a wicked Russian woman AND an evil eye cast at him by an old Assyrian witch. I'm not making this up. This stuff is powerful and it's real. It took years to get rid of the spell, although not the evil eye. Truth, stranger than fiction. Enjoyed your write, Arturo! Best always, Gershon

Silly as it may seem...there is a lot to learn from these practices...I truly love from where we came to where we are going as a people... shedding past and moving future...
