Scary Stuff

Zombies really creep me out
Those hollow eyes so whack
But I know how to chill them out
Just toss 'em weed and smack.

Witches do not bother me
A bet I'd surely take
That somewhere in my family tree
A few burned at the stake.

Ghosts and ghoulies no prob there
They make me think of Casper
Frankensteinish dudes, no way
I know I can run faster.

I've never met a vampire
I eat way too much garlic
Most monsters do not have a chance
To mess with my harmonic.

Exception doth the rule make
This one will make me run
When the bats in the attic shake up
Closet skeletons!

The skeletons in my closets will never see the light of day. Just like all of the other stuff in there. Tony

Very funny. I don't want anything disturbing my closet skeletons, either.
