A Dead man at my Party.

By R. Laurence McCalip 2017

There’s a dead man at my party.

The corpse just walked through the door.

He grabbed a beer from my cooler.

Now he’s lying on the floor!

We also invite zombies...

But this year they have the flu!

I wish that they felt better...

But they haven’t got a clue.

Ghosts are welcome at my party.

And spirits flow like the wine!

Always great to mix with people,

They dance and have a good time!

Ghouls are great for fun and games.

Especially in the dark!

If you play spin the bottle,

Wet and sticky is their mark.

Mortal guests may gawk and glare.

You see they’re really jealous.

But the dead, really just don’t care.

They’re a great bunch of fellas!

Party’s are just too much fun!

Especially when they have gore.

And there’s plenty of that around,

With a body on the floor!

There’s screaming from the bathroom.

A corpse walks into the hall.

A banshee sings karaoke.

It’s a party after all!
