My newest poem, hope you like it.

Bloody Mary......BY:KPRIMM

We've all heard the legend and the other creepy stuff
Do you think that you have what it takes?
Are you brave enough?
Just turn the lights off, go ahead
And stand before the mirror
Call her name three times and wait, to see if she'll appear

And what will you do, if she does? for it will be too late
For she'll be there in front of you
And then she'll seal your fate
It could just be a story, but if not, what will you do?
What if she is really there, what if the legend's true?

Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, say it one more time
Show us just how brave you are, maybe you'll be fine
Bloody Mary is a psycho, filled with rage and hate
Her spirit trapped there in the mirror
So patiently she waits

At one time she was beautiful
But that time's gone and past
Now she stands with blood soaked wounds
And splintered shards of glass
Oh, she's there, behind the mirror, just on the other side
Just call her name three times
And she'll be there to steal your life

Have your friends come over
Take the Bloody Mary test
But as you stare into that mirror
You're staring straight at death
Stand right there in front of her
Just how brave are you?
But she's right on the other side
Staring back at you

Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary
Say it one more time
Don't you worry about a thing
You're going to be just fine
Bloody Mary isn't there
Behind that pane of glass
But are you absolutely sure?
You want to take that chance?

Bloody Mary,Bloody Mary
You sure don't scare me
But in the mirror she waits to spring
Just begging to be free

Bloody Mary one more time
See, it isn't true
But then you realize in the dark
She's standing next to you!

Scar Stuff....................BY:KPRIMM
Just a dab will do ya'
Take a glob and put it on
You can make a wart or make a scar

Scar Stuff, Creepy Skin
Or even Monster Goop
It's all the same packed in it's little jar

With just imagination
And a little bit of time
You could make a monster of your own

A little white container
With a little dab of goop
An essential tool that every kid would own

You could buy it at the drug store
Or the local costume shop
And heck, it barely even cost a thing

The stuff was rather sticky
But to me the stuff was cool
And you could use it with most everything

Sometime's it's the simple things
That you remember most
The memories you find you hold so dear

Scar Stuff was a part of that
Helped shape my childhood
And I still think about it through the years

I have no idea who you are
But thank you random guy
Thanks for bringing Scar Stuff
To the scene

That little white container
With the sticky goop inside
Helped this kid define his Halloween

Identity On A Rubber Band..............BY:KPRIMM

I opened up the tiny box
And held it in my hand
Holding my identity
With just a rubber band

This year was a skeleton
The character I'd be
A plastic mask and rubber band
Ben Cooper made for me

The mask was quite uncomfortable
Ill fitting and was hot
The rubber band would pull my hair
But I'd not take it off

I was a fierce skeleton
As I prowled across the land
Hiding my identity
With just a rubber band

Today they call it Retro
But back then it was Mainstream
The thirty years have passed so fast
As only but a dream

It's funny how such little things
Define you as a man
Great memories made with just a mask
Held with a rubber band

Sometimes we take for granted
Simple joys and simple things
But I love my little costume
Just a mask and rubber string

This year I'll be a kid again
And Retro is my plan
My simple plastic skelie mask
Held by a rubber band

[RoxyBlue]

That brings back a lot of fond early Halloween memories, K Those cheesy masks were THE thing to wear when I was a kid.

[Copchick]

I second that Roxy! Things were so much simpler back them. Those masks were awesome. Thanks for bringing back some nice memories kprimm!

Inside-Out..........BY:KPRIMM

An unexplained phenomenon
A dark black shifting cloud
And people walking into it were turning inside-out

The cloud poured through a portal
Just a window in the air
But where the portal came or went, Nobody knew where

At first nobody seemed to know
Like sheep they milled about
But when they stepped into the cloud, it turned them inside-out

With barely even time to scream
A crunching, slurping sound
And then like shirts turned inside-out, they crumpled to the ground

Briefly hearts still beating
Lungs still moving up and down
And then like slugs left in the sun, they dried up on the ground

The cloud was supernatural
They say it came from Hell
And inside-out it turned the town, with nary but a yell

Men and women, children too
And even cats and dogs
Sacks of skin peeled from within, and all turned inside-out

This Is What I Do.....BY:KPRIMM

Building monsters, carving pumpkins
May seem strange to you
I really don't care what you think
This is what I do

I stay up late, I barely sleep
I spend way too much money
My basements filled with decorations
Props and scary dummys

I buy every pumpkin pattern
Though I'll never carve them all
I carve more and more each year
I start in early Fall

I've got crates of costumes
Masks are piled in the shed
I buy another every year
Though I only have one head

People say that I'm obsessed
That's not entirely true
I've gone way beyond obsessed
But this is what I do

Building, sweating, planning, fretting
All throughout the year
I eagerly await the night
When Halloween is here

I'm happy making monsters
That I share with all of you
I couldn't stop it if I tried
Because this is what I do

I hope I make you happy
Bringing smiles to your face
And if I did, come back next year
And walk around my place

I offer you some spooky fun
To share on Halloween
And ask for nothing in return
Except your company

As long as I'm still kicking
There's one thing that will stay true
On Halloween, I'll be here waiting
THIS IS WHAT I DO!

Up and Down The Street.......BY:KPRIMM

I sit with all my pumpkin kin
Because Halloween has come again
With toothy maw and glowing grin

We watch the passers by

All alone or group of three
Our ever glowing eyes will see
All of those who Trick Or Treat

On this spooky night

We watch with never blinking eyes
That flicker from our candle light
Like guardians we watch the night

Throughout the neighborhood

We sit on table, porch, and stoop
With missing seeds and pumpkin goop
The people snatch us up in groups

To hold the night at bay

Throughout the Summer in a field
A Jack O' Lantern soon to weild
We can't escape our fate is sealed

For soon we come alive

Growing big and orange and fat
While laying in the pumpkin patch
We hope to be the one they snatch

A guardian for Halloween

Side by side and hand in hand
You walk our haunted wonderland
As we fulfill your one demand

To guide you safely through this night

While looking left or looking right
You'll see us glowing orange and bright
Up and down the street tonight

Oh Jack O' Lantern, what a sight!

Splatter Me With Pumpkin Guts.......BY:KPRIMM

Splatter me with pumpkin guts
And cover me with leaves
Lock the chains of Halloween
And throw away the keys

Pelt me with some candy corn
Dump cider on my head
Put some Scar Stuff on my face
And make it bloody red

Hit me with an Autumn breeze
Not once but twice again
Then feel free to soak me
With a fierce October rain

Tie me to a wooden chair
Left in a pitch black room
Play some haunting music
While Imagining my doom

Bowl me over with a pumpkin
Knock me on my back
Then commence to beat me
With a Trick Or Treating sack

Trip me with a witches broom
Show me that you care
Lock me in a haunted room
And leave me sitting there

Leave me in a graveyard
With a scary moan to hear
Send the scary ghost my way
And make me face my fear

I love this spooky time of year
I'm aching for the Fall
So hit me hard with everything
I want to feel it all

Experiencing Autumn
And the magic that it brings
Splatter me with pumpkin guts
And cover me with leaves
