My Haunted Home
Under the sink, there is a glow.
It’s something bad, that’s all I know.
I’m shifting unknowingly.
There’s a hole in my sock so my toe pokes free.
A monster is by my toe nail.
Against the window, there is suddenly hail.
Waking them with a clanging sound.
So now, there are ghosts all around.
I never did believe in those things.
All those supernatural beings.
Until I moved into my new home.
Where slime oozes from my comb.
I can’t even brush my teeth.
Without spirits making noise beneath-
This house with a basement…
That I own and don’t rent…
I always wake up from my wonderful dream.
Even though I almost screamed-
With joy that I owned a house.
Maybe it would have a haunted mouse.
He would be a great pet.
Immortal, so no need for a vet.
Maybe I’d learn some evil tricks.
In my haunted house filled with magic!
