Good Ghost Bad Ghost
said the older ghost to the younger ghost,
watch and learn from me how to scare the most,
just show up in open crowd,
bare ugly fangs and scream loud,
these folks tonight are our butter and toast!
said the younger ghost to the senior soul,
to scare the most for sure is not my goal,
would listen to holy songs,
set right now, what I did wrong,
in after life wish to play a good role!
senior shook his head and charged at the crowd,
red eyes and fangs his scream was eery loud,
people in fright ran to door
who fell were trampled on floor,
he flew here and flew there waving his shroud!
the younger ran to the top of the room,
sparked a white light to dissipate the gloom,
in bright senior could not see,
younger ghost smiled cheered in glee,
do you see? not all ghosts are about doom!
