PIONEER POEM: NIGH ON OCTOBER

Rooms with locked windows
Tombs for the undead

Rats flee scurrying
Cats hide in waiting

Bell tolls in the wind
Hell waits on the doomed

Screaming in the night
Teeming black waters

Full moon’s graveyard shine
Pull demons from earth

Tombs for the undead
Rooms with locked windows

      1. You know that movie The Shining … when that dead woman springs upright and stands up? Well, I screamed out loud in the movie theatre, and that caused the woman next to me to scream, whose husband told us both to shut up. 🤣
