haunted hall















little ghost
I see you
you old hall ducker
you old door banger

you see me
I see your fear

little ghost flees
through double doors
glides down the breeze-way
to hide and haunt
deeper halls



The Tired Monk

A little ghost afraid of a tired monk? Must be the billowing robes.

  1. Oh this is a classic! Of course a ghost would flee before a bona fide monk as venerable as Old Ollie!

  8. I love the idea that its the ghosts who are afraid of the living. The photo reminds me of the dormitory I lived in in college.
