Along the moonlit way.

One need not be a house;
The brain has corridors surpassing
Material place.
~Emily Dickinson

Arms akimbo, loopy legs askew,
Leaping into darkness with delight,
Lusting for the ecstasy of fright,
Open to the charm of horrors new….

We don’t go anywhere with
“scary,” “spooky,” “haunted,”
or “forbidden” in the title.

When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out
Contagion to this world.

so beautiful as
the final
haul on Halloween night.
