Holiday Poems .
No one suspected the inordinate
or spirit prone to arrive unannounced
since most years there is smoke
and mirrors and black cats.
.
No evil mongers, no workers
of ill will and hell fiends showed
for the open house. The walls
sweated blood, the cobwebbs
grew exponentially.

Freddie stayed home feeling he
was out-matched, Michael sharpened
his blades overseas and stayed
away from Massachusettes
refusing to do penance in fire.
Vampyrs stayed in their crypts.
.
The house swayed, the ground
quaked with restless dead who hoped
nothing opened their tomb lids.
Necromancers took the night off
because what was awakened
had aready risen, hungry
for the blood of the living.
