Give Me a Hoist

The earth looks so moist
    Please give me a hoist
      right on into that coffin

  Now shut the lid
    'Quid pro quid'
      I like this game ~
      Let's play it often

Nope. I still go for quid pro quo.

I think you only get one opportunity to play this "game", G. And once is most likely enough. Hmmm...although, I didn't consider vampires. Ah, well....

A vampire’s game…he’s game to open and shut the lid at dusk and dawn…and yawns with two sharp teeth.

Whoa!! Kind of scary and dark is this work. I guess people in California and in places that are getting snow on top of snow feel that they are in a too moist place on this earth. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara
