Ghoulish Poetry

A Beautiful Man

Look at me, deep into my eyes. I am a monster, I can tell you no lies. A grotesque zombie, a son of the night. I hide after dark, away from the light. I can see you are afraid, but don't run away. I'm not evil in anyway. Allow your soul to see deep inside. I'm not so bad, please don't run and hide.

Beauty is often a dangerous mask. Seeing past the skin is the ultimate task. There can be danger behind a sweet smile. Knowing a person can take awhile. Embrace this abomination that is me. Burn the illusion, allow yourself to be free. Come to my realm, and the truth you will see. A Demon's embrace shall be with thee.

Party Animal

I feel the calling of the night. it's Halloween, to my dark delight. There's something eerie in the air. It summons me to the demon's lair. Without realizing, I arrive at a place. A Halloween party, I see my first scary face. Attractive witches are kissing a Pumpkin. The Grim Reaper is there for the hunting.

A man in a tux asks me who I am. A mysterious woman grabs him by the hand. Their deep eyes fixed in mine. Suddenly they laugh, and drink red wine. Purple candles are lit in a room. Satan himself will be coming soon. I want to stay, instead of saying goodbye. The music and monsters are now my friends. I wish this celebration would never end. I was offered a pipe, that I can't resist. So many surprises still yet to exist...

The Black Widow

Hello there guy, my name is Hun. I just lost my husband, let's have some fun. I can see you're nervous, it shows on your face. But I'm experienced at sex, lets meet at my place. Six months has passed and it's time to wed. I can't wait to get inside your head. The pastor reads our vows in church. A vulture sits on a nearby perch.

Now that were married, I've doubled my wealth. However, it's a shame you're in such bad health. Before you sleep, I'll give you a smile. And if you don't wake, I'll give 911 a dial. I loved you my love till the end. But now it's time to tie-up loose ends. The police have figured out my sinister scam. Now I sit on death row, waiting for the grim reapers hand.
