Mistress of Dark Arts

Dark arts were her stage
 From a tender age
 She could conjure up a beast
 From out of thin air
 Cross her if you dare
  And upon your bones she'll feast

 She steals from the grave 
 For bones she does crave
 She is someone you should dread 
 She rides through the night 
 Such a ghostly sight
  With the pale moon overhead

She sounds a bit on the creepy side, a little on the wicked side as well. Methinks it's best to stay far away from her. Halloween is right around the corner, and this fits perfectly in that category. ~ Brandy

She is loosely based on a book character
