Halloween Spooks - I

HALLOWEEN SPOOKS - I

Not by night
Not by day
No escape
No way

In your bed
Late at night
There’s no help
There’s no light

On the highway
For heaven’s sakes!
Brace yourself
No brakes

In the air
Take a breath
Oh my God –
Smell of death!

In the bathroom
On the stool
Evil, smiling,
Disgusting ghoul

Climbing the stairs
Bedroom above
Oops!  Whoops!
I get a shove

Love in the night
Better not look
Fatal kiss
She’s a spook!
