[hometext] => I suppose this is my belated Halloween poem. Perhaps I should start work on it earlier next year. lol.
[bodytext] => ~***~ The devil's eating little children in the woods behind the graveyard tombs ghouls stare from dark windowed houses 'pon the dead end road. Roses lay 'pon white sheets ; filthy, torn , soaked with blood A body lay on a country road ; naked , dead , a perch for crows The children walk at midnight now, speaking ( though they are'nt alive). The ghouls crawl through widowsills and bare their teeth in moonless night Wolves crowd the bedroom floor and lap the pool of lover's blood Somewhere on a country road a body twiches , scattered crows The devil climbed my garden tree and , through my window , stares at me Ghouls 'pon the rooftop join the wolves in howling hauntedly The children walking up the stairs ( the final thing I can recall ) and then I woke naked , freezing somewhere on a country road. ~***~ [comments] => 3 [counter] => 231 [topic] => 13 [informant] => doug [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
