Believe in Ghosts?  No Way!

 

By Elton Camp

 

To refute belief in ghosts is why I’ve come

To do it without beating the religion drum

There are entirely practical reason as to why

I know folks don’t become ghosts if they die

 

Murder me and invisible but active I become?

Then I’d take vengeance and even add some

I would whack your head right off your shoulders

So that in your own grave your corpse molders. 

 

No murderer would ever punishment escape

And the need for police and laws it’d reshape

Any vicious serial killer who is on the prowl

Of his very first victim would sure run afoul

 

A father who dies and leave children behind

Could walk into just any bank and money find

His invisible ghost could walk through a wall

Go right inside the bank vault and take it all

 

Yet you never hear of any of this type stuff

To disprove the ghost idea it seems enough

So if you are ever tempted to believe a lie

A bit of common sense and logic please try
