Who had a well thought out plan
With a ghost buster machine
He grabs the ghost by the spleen
And created a new ghostly fan

After 1:00 Am

After 1 a.m., there's no sounds
Emptiness fills the streets
With a kind of eerie feeling
As the quietness mimics itself
For the streets feels
Ghostly! BOO

Who thought being dead was a blast
He screeched down a hall
Causing one girl to fall,
And now her right leg's in a cast!
