happy happy

Halloween!  Here's a poem I am composing at work with a brain sugar attack!  Careful, it rhymes!  All exclamation points!


the house at the end of the street

where willow trees harken,
I saw
a lane darken
,
oh mother
save

us from the grave
us,

and give oh give kindness,
for
in a us a blindness,

to all that would
falter and sway.

danger be had, oh Sir
Galahad,

you wear out the
vestige of prestige
and

take us to unknowing
river
towards river flowing.

we must be ghouls
and
take off the spools
of hallow
and arch and dismay.

for in us a wish
to be
fresh from a kiss

of the mummy, the corpse, and the day.
