First Place
They have been waiting for Halloween, for when the dead, zombies and such can be seen; some walk oddly- and to one side they careen, their decaying bones a disturbing moss green ! And here come the vampires to walk with us, sometimes, these blood suckers even take the bus; they serve no real purpose- quite useless and superfluous, I am not afraid of them cause' I am no wuss ! I have seen skeletons walking with rags tattered, some missing bones and looking battered; they do not stay together but quickly are scattered, they are spotted with dirt and mud splattered ! They all walk among us, the living, in the moonlight, people look at them and run away at the sight; but, Halloween night is their sublime delight, roaming till dawn- then gone till next Halloween night !
