There was a headless horseman one day
he was probably a norseman I’d say
they’re caffeine wedded

Dem Norskies get carried away...

The headless horseman
Appears to folk on dark nights
They scream like banshees
The black steed gallops away
Frightened by such loud noises

our world is hell, if where you dwell,
pain and suffering is near,
no need to go to Satans hell,
it's a bit more subtle here...

He rides alone and conquers all,
he already has so he just sits at home,
waiting for the right time to strike the friendly foe with a perfect smile,
he knows the path he must eternally walk battling evil by which he is stalked...

Headless horseman came in the dead of night, but he made no sound.
His stallion did though – it neighed and whinnied and twirled around.
You must have been in Sleepy Hollow a relative said.
He is more unimaginative than a skeleton dead....

Lone walk. Fear the night.
Soft footsteps.. black.. still, spooky.
Fast flutter... Owl hoots.

Neck hairs standing up!
Headless horseman..giddyup!
Eerie pumpkin grins...

Noises behind me...
Closer....hot breath on my neck!!
Beat feet! Run like heck!!!...

A cold, creepy Halloween night.
What Katrina found gave her a fright.
It was the head of Ichabod Crane-
Of headless horseman fame.
She waited for him to ride by.
Closed her eyes and held his head way up high.
The next day Crane was back teaching his class.
As if 230 years never passed....

morning came with rain
rapping a melody sweet. . .

indonesian beaches and
days of infinite hunger
drunk and repellent
I am again
there’s no time for fishy flattery
'cause god called a horseman
flogging a dead horse
outlaw of the oscillation nation
playing with matches
by the gas-works
and I have this foreboding
of foreign foods
and fishmonger hooks...

O-ctober flames of pumpkin eyes, stoked.
 C-reepy coldness at our backs. Tales
 T-old with ale — the headless horseman.
 O-ff he rides in the wind.
 B-rr, wind wool scarf ‘round neck.
 E-ars shudder as the narrator says,
“R-est your heads for awhile, friends.”

<                    hes my banker and my heads horseman
                      calling bounty on anothers land
                      hark the herald angels
                      I think this game is swell
                      now thimble owes me sixty five grand

Are you set to sleep, if you dare to do so
Music starts for no one on this fearful night
The pumpkins shine brighter so that we may go
Sleeping without an escape plan for tonight
The headless horseman comes out for your head now
Listen in the deep for the great cat’s meow
To bed my little one, to dream land, it’s time
You won’t have the saving grace, there’s no lifeline

The fourth horseman now comes,
in search of your kin.
The suffering is great,
souls scream to the wind.

Number four now strikes,
no remorse and no sin.
He brings death to your door,
do not let him in.

This fourth horse is pale,
there is nowhere to hide.
Nothing can save you,
your wealth nor your pride.

Please don't wait too long,
being stubborn and not see.
You still can be saved,
if in faith you will believe....

Saša Milivojev - THE LAST HORSEMAN

 
White, everything is white
The walls are moving
A body in hospital sheets
White horses pull the bed
The soul crawls behind them and begs
White
Around the bed
Angels dance in a circle
The sky sheds its clothes
Give me back my body
To forge my heart
I do not want to travel anymore
Through this endless field
Wrapped in white sheets

The autumn leaves scattered along the road
Draw the eyes to a misty foggy night
Blurred in the shadows a scary abode
Too misty for travellers in the night 
Before the daybreak when the mist explodes
Just when thickness surrounds wrapping so tight
There comes forth a gallant horseman to lead
Mortality freed, immortality concede

“Listen to that timber roar.
But deny the musical notes of war.”  The man says

The 13th horseman laughs and replies
“I am the one that rides the night.
Upon my view, even the devil, Hail Mary he recites.
Lust is my personal harlot
It seems even bliss flips in the bosom of my fist, just wish and I shall grant.
For I am the 13th horseman
There is No soul I cannot condemn.
So let us take a journey down this crimson road,
Together. ”...
