SPECTERS’ ACTS
By Vincent Valentine
Bodies are laid to rest in dismal crypts
They lay there undisturbed and at peace
The site is very calm and practically serene in the stillness of night
But loiter not the spirits in tombs
Thus the quiet spirits arise and take flight
As phantoms of the night
The graveyard is where they linger
Observing and thrusting finger
At the living that enter their gloomy lair
Enveloped in the murky air
Of the bizarre world of souls departed
And as I trod in this realm of cosmic confusion
The events I behold are beyond my own rational conception
And so now is the question:
How to describe the acts of specters?
However, I am presently quite over-involved, as it were
So I shall endeavor write you, if at all I am viable in this absolutely horrid place I do say, but in letters
I bid you adieu in the world of the living
Yours truly…
