"Ghouls in the Room"
UPDATED On March 7, 2007
The room was quiet and warm...she
was sitting up in bed reading her
favorite book of herbs.
A breeze was drifting in through the window
and she thought the rustling sound she heard at times
was the breeze moving the ivy leaves
that covered that side of her house.
It was the acrid smell suddenly filling the room
that made her look up.
Totally startled by what she saw ...the book fell
from her hands and she instinctively
pulled herself close to the wall
and clutched the covers to her throat.
The room was filled with Ghoul like creatures
wearing grey tattered robes...they were all staring at her
with the most evil intent she had ever witnessed!!!
Nothing was said...they just stood there
staring...eyes glowing in the shadowy circle
of the draped grey cloth hiding all of their
features except for their eyes.
They began moving closer to her bed...
she could see words written on each of them.
As startled as she was... she read them one by one...
Greed....Envy....Hate....Spite...Anger...
Frustration...Perversion...Negativity....
Liar...Traitor...Theif...Gossip......
Con....Bigot....
Imposter....Spy...Tormentor..
and on and on.
She look into each set of eyes
as she read their names...When she had finished...
They moved forward towards her
and spat green slime on her beautiful white bed cover.
Their evil laughter echoed throughout the room....
then abruptly stopped.
They resumed their staring.
She slowly shook her head at them...
picked up her book and began reading.
In unison they screamed out their frustration..
at being thwarted.
she looked up in time to see them fading
back into the awful unhappy lives
from which they had come...
The slime had disappeard
from the coverlet
on her bed...
She moved back to her comfortable position and read...
Garlic has many uses...
