Ghoulish Snooze

A medley of nightmares

Ghoulish Snooze

In an abandoned cornfield

Dry husks and bloody skies

Bogeymen embracing dead twigs

Snap! In her direction the angry flock came

She used her arms …her sole shield.

 

Suddenly she took quite a tumble

Unsteady and tilted

Her house hung on the edge of vertigo

The slightest breeze could make it all crumble.

 

Last night she trashed with dread

Heavy and clogged breaths

She took cover in Poison Ivy

Rashes and trails of crimson

Were enough to get her screaming out of bed.
