    Poem Commentary

    This was written in five minutes. I had a sudden whim to base a poem around Marilyn Manson's 'This Is Halloween' song. Hope you enjoy =^-^= KW

    Ghosts, Witches, Vampires, and Gnomes

    Come, boys and girls,

    Come and see—

    Come and give your toes some curls,

    My, my, my, oh my me—

     

    In this town,

    Ghosts and ghouls are afloat—

    Boys and girls, please don’t frown,

    If you do you will be cloaked—

     

    Witches, zombies, vampires too,

    They would all just like to see you—

    Bones, blood, and gore everywhere,

    Don’t be frightened as it were—

     

    Come boys and girls,

    Wouldn’t you like to see something strange?—

    Don’t just sit there, lump and dote,

    Make up your mind and make a change—

     

    Up and down, all around,

    Bats fly and monsters roam—

    Left to right no one is bound,

    Just be sure to watch the gnome!—

    Thank you, lol. I don't listen to him either, I just heard that song and a poem idea popped into my head. I thought gnomes would give a nice touch to the creepies :P

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
