Happy Place

 


A haunted holiday
a month of horrors
old and new
gothic classic
slasher fare
a hundred screams revisited
new screams find voice
screen and page
visual and audio

Poe hits man in his core
and the audience is desperate 
to pay the price

Fear's Barker breeds
new night children
for us to swaddle in our dark hearts

The King of terror
still bleeds profusely 
and people rush to bath in his outpouring

31 beautiful bricks of blood
pave the dark path
to my happy place
