The Haunted

There was opaqueness in the autumn air

Such light was ensnared,

Hidden, exposed and bare

When hollows halloaed affairs

In the Haunted Forest of Nowhere

Miss Amber,

Hardworking candor

In making apples sweeter

In the twilight hills with her Keeper

And her child, Weeper,

Lived in stagnation

Of demon lords and witch lore,

Self-beheld as October Saints in the cold moor.

Abruptly, still was the relentless flow

Of pretty birds, Keeper's whistle chirps,

Laughter of Weeper's munchkin,

And Amber's carving pumpkins

When all heard from down below

The highest of the highest pitch of note

In the opaque autumn air,

In the Haunted Forest of Nowhere

Came running, blood soaked Henry

And from behind, bloated Gendry

Maws agape, although they ate

Keeper's flesh was the most delightful taste.

Pitch of screams

And Weeper's weeps

Amber came to intervene,

With hardest of hardest bible

Blasted the Deads from their supper of flesh mead,

Collapsed on the peaceful ground,

Blood from the bible

Drip drop all around.

Like impatient stags,

Amber and Weeper ran away mad

Configuring to the situation,

They yet pertain to the limitation

Of too little in life

To die from a wounded bite.

Placid dusk makes them hide

The prey that they are define

Fear up to their necks,

Amber wishing it would've been her instead,

Guilty now that she once lay with a man in her marriage bed

And Weeper is a weep to shed.

In the last dimness in the autumn air,

Bloated Gendry awoke from his bible snare,

Sniffing hungrily like a limp dog

No, it wasn't the bloodshed of paper God,

It was the trailing of a recent mob.

Sweet and tender

Bloated Gendry could not remember

The last his appetite surrendered,

Stupor at his droppings that quite render.

Dumb and dead, his flesh craves another yet.

Another haunting is yet to be ensued

If Amber could keep her wits and her shoes,

And Weeper to not fall asleep any deeper,

For both to be on the move.

To a different cottage

Much stronger than the others found in

Concealed themselves in the midnight Bound Inns

Safe in their blankets

They pray to banish Satan

Until an eerie feeling sent Weeper peeking,

Sending him a dark chilling.

In the darkness, came an ashen face

Filled with malice and hate

With twisted fingers calling out his name,

Weeper paralyzed to meet his fate.

He sank under the blankets

Unto which he prayed.

Amber awoke to the nothing-ness of abstain

No Weeper's weeps or the mad sounding heap

Of the Deads keep and moaning disdain

Weeper went to pee, she thought appeased.

Until the shattering of glass and gun powder

Turned Amber to sour

Just hearing once more

The moaning war,

Hungry limp men in feast for human boar.

Amber left without a slightest glimpse behind

To see if Weeper was still inside.

Horror rang her core

Like church bells on judgment day.

She knew just what to rely on to keep her safe.

A witch with all wisdom of lore

Spell books to put to sore

And keep Amber bound from this dead war.

Just a breath away to knock

The air says mercy

Until the world held its breath on the dot

When Amber fell into her pit,

Gashed wounds and arteries spit

Her fate was perhaps the worst

For a thirst, died in disemboweled form.

Such hauntings follow the sins

Of those who adore life

In the autumn opaqueness filled with brim,

It came from the Haunted Forest of casted sins.
